Offered: Scanning old Photos

Recommended Posts

Hi,


As the post says - I offer scanning of those precious photos which have been lying neglected in an album or worse, in the attic! This is the best chance for you to preserve them before it is damaged/forgotten for ever.


I do not do restoration/editing i.e. the scan would be a replica of what you see in the original picture but I will scan, make it slightly clearer, crop and digitise it and send it back to you either via Dropbox or on a memory stick. I have experience of doing the same with 500+ photos. I scan them at 720dp & at 24 bit depth, which makes photos amazingly clear, good enough for a second round of printing and sharing it with the younger generation or framing it.


Rates

----------------------


> The minimum charge is ?30 which includes scanning of 10 photos and free postage or hand delivery of photos back to you. The initial rate is high because the ground work is tedious for each job


> For photos more than 10 but less than 50, it is ?0.75/photo (i.e for 50 photos, it would be a total of ?60 - ?30 + 40X?0.75)


> For photos more than 50 but less than 100, it is ?0.60/photo


For larger orders, contact me directly for the cost.


Notes on privacy: I understand that you would be opening up a very personal collection of your favourite memories to a total stranger; as a person concerned about privacy myself, I can guarantee that they would only be seen by me for the purpose of scanning and once the files are transferred over to the customer, I shall be permanently deleting the copy I created.

    • DKH was two form entry, it is now one form entry to cope with the fact it was far more under subscribed than other schools in the area. They had actually combined year groups into single classes, 3/4 and 5/6.  When a school changes name, it’s usually because of a bad reputation perhaps the results.  The new name is dry with no history unlike its current name. It’s a very sketchy decision. It’s an expensive vanity project for someone.  What  will happen if the name change does not increase applications to the school?     
    • @first mate I assume Alice made a mistake, as she removed her reaction.  I was wondering about park wardens. As I said, there was one there last night, who was incredibly helpful and proactive. As well as bringing me to the police, he caught up with a young guy on a bike who'd earlier been the victim of an attempted theft by these kids and linked him up with the police too. But I do wonder, as I've only very occasionally seen him riding around, how many they have and what hours they patrol. I've no doubt they'd be a strong deterrent if they had a better presence. They were nowhere to be seen the first time around.  Update: I've just found this: https://services.southwark.gov.uk/community-safety/community-wardens The guy in the photo at the bottom of the page was the lovely warden of last night and I've just now remembered him telling me he's based in Burgess Park. Anyway, there needs to be more of them, as I rarely see one in Peckham.
