Here's a start.

(Odd picture. Or rather odd focusing. It seems to be out of focus in different amounts across the picture. I wonder if the lens wasn't screwed on properly when it was taken)

Here's my first attempt.  I think a lot of it is motion blur,
this would explain why people to the sides are more
blurred than those in the centre.

Why thank you all for your attempts they look great, the three shoeless boys in the front are a lot clearer in some.

Please be kind this took hours and hours. But it seems the only way to bring out some detail.

Non colourists I aplogise for this effort.

I blended my earlier attempt with Meldrew's colouring.  Hope you don't mind Meldrew.
