What a lovely photo ... well I've polished her cap badge, added the top of her cap, as have many others, powdered her nose  and generally got her ready for parade... You've had some  superb restorations  on here ... hats off to you all .  :)

It's always special  to find photos of our ancestors and they can often  become faded and damaged, sometimes because they have been sat on a windowsill in a frame in the sunshine possible for many years, or they may have been stored in inappropriate  places in lofts, sheds etc and/or may even  have been damaged in floods or fires in the past.
 Being able to restore some of these images, digitally at least,is often really time consuming but  can be really rewarding when the person who has posted originally is so obviously pleased with the results of our restorers' efforts. Your comments and thanks to all our restorers will be appreciated ...
