Title: my beautiful grandmother on her wedding day
Post by: cakemagic on Monday 08 August 11 18:15 BST (UK)
Please could this lovely photograph be restored- it looks as though my grandmother has a black eye for some reason! Would very much appreciate it if it could be fixed.

I'm not usually a fan of hand colored photos, even the original vintage ones. This one is quite charming, however, and was very well done back its day. Anyhow, here's my crack at it. I thought it would be a good idea to keep it oval shaped. Wasn't sure if it would be better on a black or a white back ground, so I'm including one of each.
