Sorry deadants and DDRAIG could not resist  :D


 Yes it's a tough one. The gentleman is not to bad but the woman is so faded I think a it of fancy manipulating is called for.


Is this what you mean, or wishful thinking  :D  ;D  :D

Had a go at the original -  :'( will leave well alone

Kenhar, thats amazing ;)
If only ::)
Joking aside the lady in the original photograph is wearing a tiara with a jewel decoration draped down her forehead.
I just tried a colour wash on the entire Image, light blue, and it brings out more detail.

Having returned from a short break and on opening up my PC what a suprise, I would like to thank Gary, Man of Kent Kenhar,Scrattletrap for the improvement's made to the pretty washed out photograph of my forebears, you have brought out the likeness to both of the faces especially to my gr/gr grandmother looking at another photograph I have it bears a very good resemblance.
I would like to give a special thanks to deadants for his patience in dealing with me and for the time he spent advising me on certain aspects he was most kind.
Once again my thanks to you all.
