Ladies and Gents,

Sorry for my silence - I was in Vietnam on a business trip for a few days and suffered a computer accident while there, meaning that I was out of action for some time (in case you are wondering, spilling beer over your laptop's keyboard does NOT improve its performance!).

Anyway, all is repaired now, I am back home, and I attach a colour scan at 300 dpi (compressed) of the original photo for all you Photoshop folks to play with.

MKG ... thanks for your observation - there is a thread in the Common Room entitled "Which brother is it", which poses the question as to which of the two brothers - the one standing between the ladies, or the one second from left is the same of a series of later photos of one of them.  Your observation is consistent with replies posted on that thread!

All the best

.... then the computer crashed....

Back up and running and I managed to haul this one out of the debris.... I've spent more time looking for the thread than I have on the picture, but it was nearly finished so shouldn't be long now.

What a beautiful picture and what superb colouring
PaulaToo.

How on earth did you manage this and a computer crash?

The other restores are lovely.  This is a superb picture anyway.

Well Paula,
 
I am very glad that you found it and I suspect that Tim will be as well!

Hi Paula,

That's great!  The groom (tallest man) is my great uncle.  I shall forward the photo to his grand-children, who, I am sure, will be delighted.

All the best

It's one of those photos we all wish we had the likes of, Tim.
I'm so glad I could rescue it, and finish it... and eventually find the thread to post it.
Lovely picture.
