<div>I'm just guessing, but could the left column possibly be something like "Hier schicke ich dir ein Bild von mir. Wie findest du mich hier? Ich bin nicht sehr ___ aus ___bildern”<br/>
<br/>
I’m sending you here a picture of me. How do you think I look? I am not very....... (out of?) ___pictures. (This last sentence is puzzling. Could it be a disclaimer about why he’s not good-looking enough in this photo?)<br/>
<br/>
On the right side, I am only wondering if what Paul thought was “nach” might really be “mich”, followed by a couple of words that look like “besser.” Was he saying something about his health improving????<br/>
<br/>
Again, only guessing. More help needed!<br/>

One clue must be the stamp in the top right corner,<br/>

<br/>
Does Danfield or Banfield mean anything to you?<br/>
<br/>
The text is in German, but I can not read all of it,<br/>

Even if I got all the words right (some are guesses)<br/>
it doesn't tell us much, except that it's written to a<br/>
female cousin.<br/>
<br/>

Dear Cousin,<br/>

Here I send you a picture of ...<br/>

Can anyone fill in a bit more?<br/>
There probably is some sort of signature towards the<br/>
end, right where the shadow is deepest.<br/>
