Hi All

My daughter left this photo on the train last night and this is the only copy I have,
could someone please improve it I would be very grateful. It's Blease family of Tyldesley taken in 1895.

Kind Regards David

A very quick attempt as no-one else seems to have replied. I am sure better could be done.
Hopefully there is chance that the original might be found.

Kind regards,

just to keep the thread going:

I took a different approach as i normally would due to the angle, light and lack of clarity in lower half.

I went with a more innovative approach to that lower half and took out the leg details to man and boy lower for a more artist approach - Well in my mind.

Touched up some areas on all figures and add very subtle tones to skin etc...

We all do these things differently :-)
