Hi, this is a poor copy / scan of a photograph I was sent of my Grandfather when he was a colliery blacksmith, if you wish you could do whatever you wish to try to make it better.

Many thanks as always for anything tried attempted or the usual miracles achieved  ;)

Frank. :)

I didnt do much with it, I just remove that annoying "screen effect" you get from newspapers/photocopys. And made it a bit sharper/better contrast.

Cheers.

Raising this topic as the board has gone to sleep  ;D ;D

Please start a new topic when you post a photo...300dpi is the ideal scan  600dpi for very small photos.
