2. Aye, it’s your granny when a wean in a wee kilt.

3. There are various GPTs that can colourise if you are comfortable using chatGPT, if that’s what you’re after. I’m sure plenty of free/cheap webpage based services will be capable these days also, have a google.

   not saying it’s a good one, but as an example – [https://www.fotor.com/features/colorize-photo/](https://www.fotor.com/features/colorize-photo/)

   You’ll need a high quality scan to get a decent result. You could try libraries or maybe ask for help from an independent print shop or the like?

4. scan the picture at a higher resolution.

5. Help with what? Date? Place? Who the fearsome gent with the ‘tache is? Looks like 1930s or 40s. That time period about right?

6. A decent photographer should be able to tidy that up for you, no idea what they’d charge

7. If I’m not mistaken the guy with the bagpipes is actually quite happy.

8. Scan it flat. It’s askew.

   This was done with the app called colorize, its a free app too!
