Can my man please have some TLC
« on: Thursday 22 January 09 18:55 GMT (UK) »
This I believe is the husband of the stern looking lady I posted last.

Anybody  fancy giving him a tidy up and possibly some colour please?  :)

Many thanks in advance

 ;D  Wow!! thank you all so much for your hard work - it never ceases to amaze me what a difference you lot can make to a photo.

I've got another photo of this chap further on in my album it look almost identical but there are slight differences. Why do you think there would be two almost the same??

He looks thinner in this second one....and not just because the first may be a little faded.
Looks like they were taken on the same day...?
But not the same photo because one hand has been lost to a pot plant. Oh I love Victorian photographers and their pot plants, ask Igor, but his other hand has dropped a little as well.

I think you need Prue to try to unravel this one.

Thats exactly what i thought about him being thinner - i wondered if it was the slight change in angle - but why would he have two photos of himself taken at the sametime? It must be the same day as even his tie is at the exactly same skiwift (excuse spelling - not a word I've generally had to write before :-\)

Certainly would appreciate some help on solving this one. ::)
