Is it possible to restore the colour to this faded aerial shot of my house.
Any help much appreciated.

Oh wow!  That is some reconstruction!  :D
I had a real good laugh at the new beaut swimming pool, and the fresh green grass everywhere - even on the roof of the house. Incredible ;D

I did not read the thankyou post like that ,it seemed a genuine comment in praise of a very good reconstruction , at first glance it does seem as if there is grass on the roofs ,but then you see it is the back lawns of the houses.
I saw it as just a little jokey comment, with no disrespect intended

I don't think it's a joke, your tone is contemptuous, artificial intelligence was used to understand the unclear parts of the image, the white reflection often indicates water, are you the owner of the image? Your comment is unfortunately negative and the owner of the image either likes the reconstruction or leaves it, this is unacceptable mockery

It was so funny, I assumed it was a joke. I’m still laughing. :D
Why would you think you are being mocked? You clearly acknowledge that the fault is with artificial intelligence.
I don’t see any unclear parts on the original image, only faded colours.

Still waiting to see if anything can be salvaged from this faded picture.
It will be a shame to throw it away.
