Hello Tim,

I have done a lot of scanning but never seen this effect before.  It looks like 
a limitation of the scanner. Have you thought of using a camera on a tripod to 
make copies of the original photos?  You are scanning at 600dpi, but a decent 
camera should be able to exceed that easily if the originals are no larger than 
a postcard (150mm x 100mm).  Just make sure the photos are evenly illuminated 
and set the camera colour balance accordingly.

Hi folks,

i'm trying to digitalis a postcard composed out of 4 different photos (without 
access to the original). To get the highest resolution possible i bought me a 
scanner, but while working grate on normal paper, its got problems with that 
glossy postcard-paper i would like to remove digitally. I scanned the postcard 
once horizontally and once vertically in 600 dpi photo mode (see both layers). 
I rotated one layer and positioned it roughly, but i am not in search for a 
complex ai based filter that removes distortions by combining both scans in a 
complicated way, the two layers is just to state my issue.

My question is, is there any filter i can use to remove this rainbow-like lines 
in one of the layers and if so, how could i accomplish this things with gimp.

Ill try to attach the file (ca. 40.8 MB xcf file) here, if this dosnt work you 
can download it here:
