Can anyone work their magic cleaning up this photo please
« on: Wednesday 22 October 25 15:58 BST (UK) »
Hi, hoping for some help in cleaning up this photo of Alfred Francis Jordan (1878-1914). His ship HMS Aboukir was torpedoed by the German U Boat U19 and sank with all hands on 22nd September 1914.

Any improvement would be very much appreciated

My Try-cleaned the dots

Just replying to remind myself to look at this when I'm home in Monday.
Been a while since I did some Photoshop.
