Friends Mum & Auntie needs help with repair & colour if possible COMPLETED
« on: Monday 12 September 11 11:39 BST (UK) »
Hi

Please could someone try and repair and add colour if possible to this faded photo of my friends late mother and auntie.They both had fair hair and her mothers dress was blue with white flowers and white cardigan but no idea of aunties colours.Any improvement would be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks

Kathy

Hi Irene,

Thankyou for your improvement of the photo especially having the cars and bus under the tree.My friend did not know where or when the photo was taken but it looks like a bus trip but goodness knows where???.It looks like a statue or something behind them and they are standing on a large base I don't suppose she will ever find out.

Thanks

Kathy

Hi Carolyn,


Thankyou very much for the improvement and the lovely frame you have done it looks great  :) :) :) :) :) it is very much appreciated what all of you do on this site.
I wonder if there is a magician?? on here who could add a bit of colour if not what has already been done to the photo will be sufficent for my friend.

hi Kathy... just a thought re the statue behind them. it looks to me like one of the virgin mary or a catholic saint. Were they catholics? no matter its just a thought. i love the restorations and colour added by other members they have done a great job. mirambu/joy
