Anyone good with photo image repair skills ?

**admin** · 09-07-13, 04:11 PM

I have a couple of photos that I am adding to my family tree that have a tear in them. Is there anyone handy with Photoshop or similar that might be able to blend the tear marks to get rid of them or make them look better if I upload them here ?

Photo computer skills are not something that I have ever been to flash at

Thanks

Happy to have a shot at it.

Upload the highest resolution you can.... or email them if you prefer.

Its just mainly these 2 for the moment...these scanned images are all I have at present as I am not sure I have proper copies. They are the main "avatar" type pics for both my grandfathers in my ancestry.com.au family tree.

No harm in both of us (and even more) having a go at these, Mick.

admin can use whichever he prefers.

admin,

Both should come up OK.... the one with the blotches will take a bit more work though.
