Another ancestor Great Grandfather Alfred - Barrister at Law - wishing for a brightening and removal of scratches please. I just can't help myself posting more photos when I know all you skilled people are out there doing such wonderful work. It appears you all really enjoy doing what you do and speaking personally - it is really appreciated.
Alfred was born in 1838 and I wonder at what period this photo was taken He worked in British India for many years.
Thank you sincerely

Bill and Irene you excel each time - thank you so much.
Each photo restoration holds its own special quality either in tone, or content. I love the different shades of colour and how the chair and flowers stand out for instance.
Much appreciated

Hello Bill again,
I have just noticed you have given Alfred Greatbatch some gloves! How great is that and his hand looks really good too. Funny thing is though when I really enlarged the original photo at home before posting it I thought he was wearing gloves - as his hands looked crinkly and I could see no finger nail. However I really love what you have done with his hands.
Thanks
Kate

When I enlarged the original photo to 1000 dpi it looked as if there was something darker in his right hand, and being a 'proper gent' it could possibly have been a pair of gloves. ;)
Bill.
