This new feature allows people to take their old photographs of their ancestors and enhance them. Essentially, the feature \u2018cleans\u2019 the photo from static and aging in a way that makes the pictures look like they came out brand new. Combined with their \u2018Colorize\u2019 feature, this tool will definitely help you in your efforts to preserve photographs of your ancestors for the foreseeable future.<\/p>\n<p>The process is very similar to the \u2018Colorize\u2019 feature. When you open MyHeritage, click \u201cFamily Tree\u201d in the top menu and select \u201cEnhance Photos.\u201d You can either drag and drop your photo into the frame or select a file from your computer. After the website analyzes the picture, you can then use the slider to see how the enhancement compares to the original. One cool feature is that you can select a person\u2019s profile (underneath the photo) and see the enhancement up close.<\/p>\n<p>Here below is an engagement photograph of a couple from my dad\u2019s side of the family and the various enhancements it went through.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6691\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6691\" style=\"width: 357px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6691\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thefhguide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Screen-Shot-2020-06-16-at-10.50.18-AM-206x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"357\" height=\"520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thefhguide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Screen-Shot-2020-06-16-at-10.50.18-AM-206x300.png 206w, https:\/\/www.thefhguide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Screen-Shot-2020-06-16-at-10.50.18-AM.png 505w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 357px) 100vw, 357px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6691\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Arthur and Marie Morisseau, 1893 original<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div class=\"mceTemp\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"mceTemp\"><\/div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6698\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6698\" style=\"width: 559px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6698\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thefhguide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Screen-Shot-2020-06-16-at-12.40.24-PM-300x229.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"559\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thefhguide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Screen-Shot-2020-06-16-at-12.40.24-PM-300x229.png 300w, https:\/\/www.thefhguide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Screen-Shot-2020-06-16-at-12.40.24-PM-768x585.png 768w, https:\/\/www.thefhguide.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Screen-Shot-2020-06-16-at-12.40.24-PM.png 963w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 559px) 100vw, 559px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6698\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Original v.
