The Home Gaurd
« on: Wednesday 04 May 22 10:10 BST (UK) »
Hi, I am a member of the local heritage centre and have this photograph of the Village Home Guard which is the only one in that exists today from 1943. I would be extremely grateful if it can be sharpened up and brought more into focus. Colour would a big bonus.
 many thanks

Hi, Bravaal. I'm assuming you only have a digital version of this photo which unfortunately is too low res. to support any decent sharpening without making it up. Anyway, here's my effort.
