Photograph Help Needed

Hi.
Could some kind person please be able to help me with a couple of photographs.
The first is a family wedding group before my brothers wedding in 1971 and the other is of my cousin who lived in Cooksey lane early 1960's. Any help would be greatly received.
regards John

I struggled with this one, large file size but resolution low and I couldn't completely clean the bricks. The file size was almost 1Mb by the time I had finished so had to reduce the image size and have put a border on to possibly hide the forum watermark.

Thank you so much for doing this oldMohawk . It really is excellent. This photograph is one of the last family photographs I have that has all my brothers, Mom and Dad in. Sadly to say two of my brothers, Mom and Dad have passed away since it was taken. Over the years it has stood in a frame in front of a window, hence the bad deterioration.
Thanks again.
regards John
 
nice job phil...hopefully someone can help john with the other photo...:)

Thank you Jonob. This is really good. Are there any program you would suggest I could try on other photographs in the future? I would love to be able to go through my older photographs and have a go myself.
Thanks again John.
 
That is absolutely brilliant. Thank you so much. this photograph will make a lot of people very happy. I never thought it could be done as good as this. Thank you for putting your time into doing this for me. And thanks for the photoscape link, I shall have a look at that.
Thanks again.

I use Photoshop, but, this is now only available on subscription at around £10 per month. You could try Gimp which is free and there are plenty of tutorials on YouTube, all the best, J.
