After my Mum died in 2003, the family were going through some old photos and came across this picture. Nobody in the family knows who this group are or why it was taken, written on the back was1949? (I did wonder about the Queen's Coronation but there's no flags/bunting, so I ruled that out)
My Gran is the plump lady standing in the front row (with spots on the upper part of her dress) and my Dad is the man standing at the back with his hand on the shoulder of the lady in front of him.
Would it be possible to crop Dad out and place him on Gran's right shoulder and create a picture of just the two of them together.

Thanks,

Christine.

Not very big photo now but I've managed to get them together.  Had to put Dad behind her left shoulder though.

I had a quick bash at swaping the ladies heads round, if you don't mind the new body and dress I can do a more refined job?

Hi Everyone,

Firstly, I'd like to thank you all for the work that you've done so far.

I must confess, my original thought for this project was on the lines that Wendy has created, (just a head & shoulders image) but that was because I didn't even think about switching peoples heads to other peoples bodies, so I'm happy to see any interpretations you guys create. It never ceases to amaze me what you clever people come up with.

Thanks again,

Christine. Smiley
