Good morning
two lovely restores and beautiful colouring have made me look closely at these two photographs.
I think they could be the same person. Do you agree?
thank you very much
regards
Meg :)

I think you could be right Meg & Xin,
The eyes and ears look the same to me.

Xin, Charlotte and Alison, thank you for your thoughts.
The high forehead - does this look the same? I did think so
thanks
Meg :)
-
Mouth and chin/lower jaw are different

it is a difficult one as there are quite a few years between the two pics...
the restorers brush could have altered the chin ... slightly..
the eyes are coloured differently but are very similar when superimposed
the high forehead is similar
so if not the same then I think they are related...... but not sure.......

Has anyone got the link to the original thread where the photos were restored, please? I just keep finding the one with the woman and child.
I'd like to have a look at the 'raw' images to check.

I think the young girl's chin was made more pointy in the restore - the original and the older woman look very similar. I also think that the hair line of the young girl is lower than it looks (studio lighting).
I'd say that they mightwell be the same person now.

Haven't got the original of the older one up - RC is very slow at the moment and this is the third attempt at trying to post
-
they do look very similar here??
-
Took me ages to get the page load - I've angled the older one so that the jaw can be compared. Lovely photos :)
-
Looking at the images together .. I'd be very surprised if they aren't the same person .. ?
And yes they are lovely photo's .. ! :)
-
Nice photos - they look like the same person to me.

Meg ;D
-
Nearly missed it! But I agree, I think they are the same girl. :)
-
Well, I wouldn't want to be left out :D I think they are as well...I think the nose is identical in each photo.
Cheers,
China

Thank you to Igor Strav and China
Yes, I agree, same person
Thank you very much
Meg ;D
-
Yep, I'd say they were the same girl, the features match very well!
lovely lovely pictures :D
-
They are lovely pictures. There is definately a similarity between them and even more so when they were enhanced more so. :)

Look the same to me too! Do you know her name?
-
Well, I'm keen to have my tuppeny's worth, too... the reason I'd say they're the same person is because of the ears - her fairly distinctive right ear, to be precise.
If you look the at the side-by-side photos that Gadget has posted, you can see that if the person on the left as you look at the screen were to turn her head fractionally to her right, her ear would have pretty much the same profile as the girl in the right-hand-side photo - a distinctive one at that, as I say. You can look at the left-hand photo at an angle to see what I mean (it's the way all the top forensic photo people work it out :P)
