Hi Sally_404,

Very many thanks for the surprise I found this morning when I saw your colouring of the twins I love the different background you have given them very much appreciated.

Hi Kathy,

Here's a little something I whipped up. I'm not really into colouring old pictures (it's not that I cant, it's just I don't like to) however I do enjoy giving them a clean up and some tone adjustments. I think the colouring of old photos can be a wonderful thing but so can letting the original picture speak for itself. This is a fantastic old shot and as a very keen amateur photographer I find these old shots fascinating. Enjoy.

Greg.

To the other restorers out there... Please do not alter this image in any way without first seeking permission from myself. Thankyou  :)

But as the opening statement said "Please can someone add some colour to the twins" that is no doubt what I (and others perhaps) tried to do.

My Box Brownie has the same problem...it just can't handle this 21st century colored stuff.
