Low Quality Photograph
« on: Friday 27 June 25 18:52 BST (UK) »
Hi,

Attached is a photograph of my x3 Great Grandfather, James Crerand (1867 - 1953), a "flax" farmer of rural Letterkenny, locally known as "Big James". I scanned this off a family history book given to me while back by the Great-Uncle, yet because this is sourced from book material, as you can see the quality obviously lacks; now looking back, I am unsure the original photograph was actually scanned, so that's another loss. If anyone could please restore it into its former-self, I would deeply appreciate it.

Regards, CForlow.  ;D

My Try - Cleaned it up, as well as sharpened and enhancing it some, but still keep the integrity of the original photo and time period.
