Looking at Peter's side by side shot, I don't think there is any doubt. Same person.

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Re: Can anyone please date this picture, c1900 or c1928

It will be Doreen as this is a 1930s image and she looks to be around 2/3 years old.

When I was co-writing a book to mark the Anniversary of the death of the famous Aviator, Amy Johnson who was born in Hull, my uncle had previously told me that we were related to her. When I asked him for details, it turned out that she wasn't a relative, but she lived next door to my Grandparents and my eldest Aunt went to the same school.

All it takes is patience and a lot of practise. Once you have learnt what all the tools do, you will soon pick it up.

Here are two of mine for comparison. 1900s on the left and 1890s on the right.

Hi John, do you have a DOB and DOD please, men are hard to date but I would guess at late 1890s to early 1900s. Lovely photo and in great condition.
Jim and Gadget will also have an idea.

I have seen many examples of colouring photos using the AI ap and haven't been impressed as the results are patchy and unrealistic.
In common with other restorers on here, I use Photoshop Elements and find that I get the results that I like.
In my opinion, It needs be be remembered that when using colouring apps, one must be respectful of the historic nature of the photos that are posted here, the "taken yesterday" appearance of old photos is not a good look.
