Colour this photo of Mary Sergeant please?
« on: Monday 27 July 15 23:19 BST (UK) »

Could someone please attempt to colour this photo of Mary Jane Sergeant please?
I was told she had red hair, fair skin and blue eyes.
I would love to see some colour to bring her to life.

Many thanks
Jude

This one has me stumped alittle, The scan is 600 dpi but the file is small. It didn't get pixelated when I zoomed in either. The darkness of the photo hid a lot of her beauty. I enjoyed seeing it come to life.  , Tommy

Thank you Tommy.  I am pleased with it. Mary looks exactly as my grandmother described her.
