Title: My darlings need their colour back!
Post by: Rimas on Wednesday 11 April 12 23:31 BST (UK)
Hello All
I've had so many wonderful responses in the past to old photos that I've asked to have restored/coloured.
This is a more recent photo of my two oldest chicklets taken in 1980. One of my favourite pictures and it's hung for ages on a sunny wall and you can see all the colour has been pulled out.
If any of you generous, talented members can bring it back to it's glory, I would be most appreciative.
My son, Erik (on the left.....he HATED haircuts and still does at age 35) is wearing a sweater that sort of graduates from dark blue to light blue with a yellow stripe. His eyes are grey.
My daughter, Heather, is wearing a coral coloured dress. Her eyes are a bright blue.
They both have golden hair.
Thank you so much!!
Chris

Trying a sharper one - the blue cast is very difficult to get rid of !  :-\
