Creased: Uncle John Crum 1929
« on: Friday 01 August 25 00:01 BST (UK) »
I was emailed this image at the start of this century and hope that new programmes can get rid of the creases and additionally show a few faces as currently I cannot recognize my late dzd's oldest brother John.

It is an attempt to reconstruct the image rather than a restoration process. The facial features are not clear at all, and the size of the image is very small, containing only a general frame of the contents.

I am overwhelmed !!!    Thank you so much !!

I did wonder about the size when I realised that I didn't need to minimize the  original but it did look so large on my computer. 

The person who emailed me the image was my Uncle John's grand daughter and I bet she will be overwhelmed too as there aren't many photos of him about, because he was the one in the family with the camera. lol.

I look forward to downloading and putting a colpy in my old fashioned photo album.

Once again - thank you

Nicely Done- :)

The individuals look like the ones in the original. Also, the clothing is the same as in the original with some wearing ties and some not, plus the condition and wear and tear of the cloths varies with the individuals instead of all appearing new and just off the rack. It fits 1929.

Nicely cleaned up and enhanced as much as possible with what given to work with.

Peter, A really fine restoration, which keeps intact the historic accuracy of the image.
Work clothes and boots of the men remain, rather than giving them modern dress suits, and faces are clearer without changing them.
The integrity of the building behind has also been kept intact.
