:You're correct on the resolution; I've seen worse on biographies. Well done, thank you! [[User:Splittist|Splittist]] ([[User talk:Splittist|talk]]) 15:22, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

{{resolved}}Looks great! The third wire doesn't obscure the view much, I won't ask you to spend several hours on it. Thank you! - '''[[User:Floydian|<

'''Request:''' Try to remove all 3 wires. I imagine the lowest wire will be impossible to remove without faking the details beneath, but even removing the top two would really clear the picture up. Thank you, '''[[User:Floydian|<

'''Request:''' Ok, let's start over here. I requested, and received, a scanned copy of the photo above. I've also rescanned the photo from the book, ''Making Michigan Move'', which is where I discovered this photo. MDOT's scan from their archives was done at 72dpi, which resulted in 795 × 465 pixels, 175 KB. The scan I just did from the book came out at 3,294 × 1,916 pixels, 16.1 MB. The problem though is that the book was printed in in a weird sepia for the photos and blue for the text. As well, the scanned version from the book has a noticeable moiré pattern. Is there anything that can be done to salvage this photo? The first version has been nominated at WP:FPC, but it's just too low of resolution and garnering opposition left and right. <span style="background:green; padding:2px">'''[[User:Imzadi1979|<

For other editors: feel free improve upon the first image. Additional noise reduction and level adjustments will probably be useful. You can overwrite my second image. —[[User:Quibik|Quibik]] ([[User talk:Quibik|talk]]) 13:54, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
:Ok - you gave me an idea. I took the original low res image, resized and cropped it to exactly match the cleaned up book scan, then blended the book scan on top of the low res to give it resolution and detail. It's uploaded above. I haven't done any other clean up except for a tiny blur to the book scan to get rid of the last traces of halftone dots. See what you think. It can certainly still be cleaned up a bit, and levels/contrast adjusted. This was more a "proof of concept" before getting into that.

::So is it too late to tell you guys that MDOT got me a 300 dpi TIFF scan off the archived photo? It's been covnerted to PNG and uploaded at [[:File:M-15 centerline 1917-2.png]] Trust me, when I saw that last version though, I was pleasantly blown away this morning. <span style="background:green; padding:2px">'''[[User:Imzadi1979|<
