Could you clean, restore and maybe colour my great grandma please?
« on: Thursday 06 September 07 13:19 BST (UK) »
Hi friends

This is my great grandmother, Rosehannah. She was born in 1863. This photo was taken in 1940, a year before her death. She was killed along with her daughter and grandaughter during a German bombing raid on Nuneaton in 1941. :'(

Many, many thanks, Judy  :) :)
Best wishes, Judy :-))

I'm so annoyed...the pic has a milky haze to it when posted...yet it looks fine in photoshop.  I'll keep tinkering to remove it so bear with me Judy.

Okay, if all else fails cheat  ;D ;D ;D

I recoloured  ::)

I will have a go at colouring her but it will have to be tomorrow night.  My toes are about to fall off from the cold and my eyes have already gone to bed  ;D ;D ;D

I started thinking of a colour for the dress and before I knew it  ::) ::) ::).  Can't guarantee the results though  :-\


I'm really off to bed this time.   ::)
