Title: Martin and Josie Larrson , Boston MA punch up with color
Post by: Bertsbees on Friday 03 May 19 22:38 BST (UK)

These are my wife's Grandfather and Grandmother in their backyard in Boston.   We always loved this picture , especially Martin's tie flying in the wind.   If any of the volunteers could colorize it for us, it would be greatly appreciated.     Bert

            Don't put yourself down. You do a good job. :D :D :D :D :D
 
                               It's only practise ;D

                    Glad this one was a quickie. With my eyes as they are I'm going to have to

           start again with my hot eye compression pads :( :( :(

                   Ne'er mind eh!   ;D ;D ;D

Wow!  While we were snoozing here on the west coast of The States, you were all very busy!   Thanks so much to all the volunteers, we love them.    Treetotal, we love the little touch of dabbing the wildflowers with a spot  of color....nice touch.    We don't know how we are gonna pick our favorites.....

Once again, you are all great, thanks for all your hard work and dedication.
ps, I'm in the doghouse because I mispelled their last name...supposed to be Larsson, not Larrson. Oopps
          Cheers,  Bert

I'm sure you will be forgiven Bert for getting such good results for her  ;D ;D

Any relation to Steig Larsson...the excellence Author whose books I have really enjoyed...does your wife have a "Dragon Tatoo" ? ;D ;D ;D

No Dragon Tattoos,   but wasn't that an incredible series of books he created.   I'm afraid in Sweden there were many many "Lars' Sons"       :-)))    Bert
