Lovely photo! Do you have a date for it, HPU? Early 1860s?

Thank you all so much, the photo now looks very better than the original, and colour adds to it also.

Unsure of the date.

Hia again,

As promised, here are my attempts! One I have just tided up, and the other I have coloured. and again, easily changed for anything you might prefer.  :) 

I always love your challenges - great fun! I hope I have done this OK for you! ;D

Very nice in this colour- now I have quite a different view of her.
Many thanks.

This photo is coming up beautifully! I'm enjoying this one...it's nice to see a woman of a mature age wearing something other than black ;D

Helen, if you're unsure of the date, may I suggest that it looks very 1861-1862-ish? Is that reasonable?
