Hi

Is someone able to restore this pic for me?  And also is anyone able to provide the approximate date in this picture (taken in Australia).  I am thinking early 1900s but could be later.  The approx date for this pic also determines whether my Dad has the right people.  I am doing this for him. 

Thanks

Hello,


Cracking photo that ! - It had a lot of scratches/pixel issues to fix.  So here is a clean (part) and colour. If i get more time I will de-speckle even more (background etc) to try ad get better results. Some others will be along soon who are great at clean ups.


Thanks
Martyn

Oh my goodness!!!!   I am absolutely blown away and speechless.

I can't imagine how you have done that and brought a worn out, old, torn photo to life.  It is incredible.

I thank you so very much from the bottom of my heart.  My Dad will be absolutely blown away.  He is 85 years young.

A great kindness you have done.  Thank you again for your time. 


Regards and cheers!

Hi awaj66,


Well im delighted your happy with the restore - much appreciated for your kind words. I really hope your dad likes it.
I made some very minor adjustments to my first effort, just to get a bit cleaner as you can see below.


Thanks

Thank you so very much again Martyn and Pat.

I sent the photo to my Dad as a surprise and I just got off the phone with him and he was over the moon.  He could not believe what you both could do to a very old warn out pic. 

Thinking about it, I'd imagine the pic is close to 100 years old.  That is incredible in itself that it still exists knowing my father lol.

Thank you for bringing so much joy to people's daily lives. 

Cheers!
