Thanks Jim for the brighten up,its a shame about the quality of the picture,until I became interested in the family history,none of the old family photos were stored properly.I try to salvage what I can with the great help from you wonderfull people.Many thanks.Gereon.

Thanks Genie :) :)great work and what a difference.Elsie,the bridesmaid never married,and devoted her life to nursing,serving as matron on a hospital ship during WW1,Wastel,the groomsman,died the following year 1915,on active service.Tomkin,what can I say.You have surpassed yourself.Your colour rendition is amazing.The flowers,Elsies hat,how much work went into that!!!Much appreciated.All you people have been so generous with your time and effort,which I never take for granted.Please someone tell me if I post too often,as I would hate to offend.Gereon :) :) :) :) :) :)

Hi Gereon,
                      Thanks for the thanks ;D  I suspect that the gentleman on the left
          should have had a Grey dress suit but I due to my lack of skill and the
           degradation of the photo I couldn't achieve that. So he got a blue one. ;D ;D
            at no extra charge.
 
             Don't worry about the posting, although I think that there is a limit of 2 per week,
             Rootschat are very understanding.  The problem is of course that if a lot of people
               post at the same time then some may get a poor response initially because restorers
           are working on other ones. So sometimes you have to be patient.

                   Tomkin :) :) :) :) :)
