Title: My G Grandmother
Post by: Alfred Smith on Saturday 11 June 11 17:25 BST (UK)
I was so pleased with the result of a clean up of my G Grandfather I would like to give his wife a new lease of life also.

If possible can this photo be coloured. It’s a photo of my G Grandmother probably take around 1910 If colour is not possible then black and white will do fine.

Would someone who knows please let me know if this size of photo is ok to post as
I am new to this, and don’t want to offend anyone.

Thanks Alfred

Thanks you all for your great work.
After seeing what you all can do I am inspired to get myself some new software and have a go myself. Maybe then I can join your club and help others in the same way you have helped me. Hopefully one day you will see my efforts.

Many thanks

Alfred

Wow, fantastic restoration I can’t thank you enough for your expertise and effort well done.

As in my previous mail you have all inspired me to have a go at restoration myself.
I have just installed Adobe Photoshop Elements 5 onto my pc and have just started to work my way through it with some limited success at colouring although still struggling a little to remove  scratched and repair damage to photo’s.Lots of tools and techniques to master.

Hopefully one day I will be able to help others in the way that others have helped me.

Thank you once again

Alfred
