Thanks Rachel. I will send it through to you, but I'm afraid that the fading/fuzziness around the faces is on the originals, so I don't think that can be improved. My scanner is a HP Scanjet G4010 and it scans slides and negatives. I will need to find the instruction booklet as I usually scan from a button on the scanner and in order to increase the scale I think I need to go through the computer. What I hope can be done is take the big black mark off the lady's face. If not possible many thanks for your interest. Julie
