Hey guys, I'm new to these forums! I saw this thread and just had to make an attempt, so here it is. (Keep in mind that I'm still very new to graphic design and don't have much skill, so that's why it isn't better )
Side-by-side comparison:
Haven't done this in years, forgot how hard it was.

Soz only found this thread a bit late but here's a quick rendition. Unfortunately like the others say the image is pretty poor quality so it's very hard to work with.
Photo restoration is difficult at the best of times but it does help if the image is scanned at he highest possible res.
Needs allot more work but you get the idea
Such a small image to work with. And I am no professional, just a dabbler.
What I did was try to bring out your Dad, and clean him up a little. Lots of noise removed (I hope)
I did it in both color and BW.
That's a very good job Willowhoop. There is much less noise on the gentleman's face. Did you use something like NoiseNinja ? John:)
Have had another little go at this, don't know if it is any better than my last effort but here it is anyway:

Hey Steve,
I would love to edit this picture however, I am on a limited account. I cannot download or open any third party tool because of the websense.
However, I can tell you a tool which can help you in a better way.
The software is called "Photoscape" and it is really easy to use. It has some of the unique plugins and features which no other softwares have.
Here is the link for the same :
PhotoScape Download - Softpedia
After installing it, open the program and choose "editor" from the options layout
Drag and drop the picture and start editing it.
The best tweaks in the software are "Bloom" and "Background light"..Don't forget to use those options and do upload the final picture...
I've never heard of NoiseNinja John... I'm a professional tuber who works for a few artists. So I used some of my tubing skills in PSPX3. I was going to take the photo into PSCS4, but ran out of time.
I just used my pen & tablet, some softening and default PSPX3 filters. To be truthful, I don't remember which ones, coz I was just playing. I am not used to working with photographs. I usually work with tradition & digital art.
