A frame for this please?
« on: Monday 21 February 22 23:05 GMT (UK) »
Hi Chatters, this is my friend with her husband George who passed away the day after Christmas. I'm  hoping someone could do a nice oval vignette of them, perhaps including their hands, and tidy the background. She is leaning in a bit of an odd posture, not sure what's going on there, so I thought an oval crop would look more natural.

Very grateful if you could help!

Cheers,
China

Oooh lovely, thank you everyone! JF that is really wonderful and thank you for the b&w version as well! Ian, thank you, I like the purple background 🙂 Handypandy love the way the border sets off her hair, thank you very much! Gadget, fantastic as always, I like the way the surround is a pale echo of the dress!

Thank you all so much for your work!

Hello Pat, very lovely, thank you so much! Peter, super, so clear and sharp, thank you very much indeed! BTW I have McGregors too, Perth/Loch Rannoch and going way back. Have you discovered the History of the Clan Gregor, researched over a couple of centuries from kirk and private records? Worth a look and it's online.

I am spoiled for choice! Thank you everyone for your kindness. George's widow is a very special lady and will hold all of these close to her heart.
