Give your dad his own young face back for Father's Day
Fathers rarely have a good picture of themselves at twenty, standing next to a first car or holding a fishing rod. Somebody in the family usually has a creased print of it. Send a photo of that print, and the bot repairs it into something worth framing.

Make it in TelegramA picture with a story
The best gift is the one that starts a story at the table. A photo of dad leaning on a motorbike or holding a trout is a good start. After the repair, ask him who took the picture and where it was. Record the answers on your phone. The restored print then becomes the cover of a short family recording, and next year you will have something to add.
Printing in time
A local print shop can produce a matte A4 or a small frame within a day. Check the shop's current turnaround before the holiday. Send the file at full resolution and ask for a proof if you can. If you only have time for a digital gift, set the restored picture as a screen background on a tablet and leave the original print for the day when everyone can look at it together.
Tips
- Pick a picture that shows him doing something he loved.
- Ask for a plain matte finish when you print.
- Write a few lines on the back of the print about the day.
- Frame the restored copy and give him the original in a folder.
