Hello Gadget  :-* :-*

Thanks for this link and a wake up call  ;D

I've ran FFT over it and a bit of imagenomic noiseware.

There is a fair bit of jpegging on the original. "DEJPEG" might help  :-\

I have altered not levels/exposure, nor done any repairs.

FFT is available (for a small donation) from Charles at 4N6site.com

Best regards George

That's great - really quite ghost-like! Google tells me those lamps were superseded by more modern ones in 1911 - but I guess not for the working man of Botwell. Thank you for your help.

1910 (ish) with Ever ready (in a wooden box)

Carbide lamps (acetylene) still used in late 40's for some.

I am in conversation with Gadget and have revised my estimation to be circa 1910.

What date was the wedding?

The slow shutter speeds on (cheap) cameras would produce "motion blur" on subjects that were not still.

I've just had a thought. If the photo was 1910 and the woman behind him is in a wedding dress, then the photo could have been taken to mark his daughter's wedding day. Does anyone think there is enough information in the shadows to see more of what is in the background? I just see a lady in white, and possibly another man beside her!

I've ran your image through some of my toys. 

Within photoshop - first photo magic to alter the focus.

second - genuine fractals to enlarge it.

third used photoshop's exposure layer.

So - deffo a female in white and a male beside her.  :)

As an aside, the bike has an acetylene lamp on the handlebars.  ;D
