Wow, Fast work, thank you all very much

And all I did was have a little sleep, past midnight when I posted Dorothea

I am very impressed with the skills shown here. I was surprised at the detail editing brought out of the black and white photo, The florets on her blouse are there alright but I hadn't noticed before. I was just replying to thank you three for your efforts (I was impressed enough even with the B&W) when the recoloured photo arrived. a 24 caret gold necklace even. That blew me away Carolyn, All of the photos but especially your one I think are going to make an old man very very happy. I think he might even cry ^_^'
I'll print them out and mail them to NZ this afternoon, There will not doubt be a response from my Father in due time, I'll post that for you ones when I hear from Him, probably towards the end of next week.
Thank you all again and bless you Jim, David, Tabsearch and Carolyn
