Please help restore photos of Dora Aldred from Manchester, England
« on: Wednesday 14 March 18 09:23 GMT (UK) »
 :) Hi I am attaching two photos of Dora Aldred as a young woman. She was born in Manchester but emigrated as a young woman with her parents and young siblings to Melbourne, Australia. Dora was the youngest sister of my maternal grandfather. Thanks, Deb

 :) :) :) :) Wow!!! You have all done amazing work on these two photos, exceeded my expectations by far. Carol, thank you! Dora would have been exceptionally pleased with this beautiful make over. She was clearly a pretty young woman (my great aunt) and you have enhanced her beauty. Thank you also, Japeflakes. These are stunning restores. The second photo that I submitted was not of great quality but have managed to do as ever, an amazing job. Very natural look and thank you for repairing the tears and spots that had damaged the photos. Loord74, these colour restores are strikingly beautiful and you have done her proud. I love these! The colour adds a quality of softness to her face in both photos. Handypandy, you have maintained Dora's natural beauty and managed to remove all the imperfections, thank you. The light and shade on Dora's face in your second photo is just lovely.
Thanks so much to all of you. I wish to copy them all and share them. Do I have your permission to do this? Thanks again, am over the moon, Deb
