The prompt

This is an old family photo. Restore it so we can look at it, without turning it into a new picture. Keep every face the same person: same features, same age they were then, same expression. Do not beautify anyone. Do not slim anyone. Do not add people who are not already in the frame. Do not crop anyone off the edge. Fix only this: [scratches, folds, faded colour, a stain in the corner]. If it is black and white, add quiet colour that could have been real clothes of that time, and tell me you guessed the colours. If it is already in colour, do not push it brighter than a normal print. Keep the grain and the slightly soft focus. Leave the background as it is. No new backdrop. No text. No date stamp unless one is already there. Same framing as the original.
