Could you colour this photo of my auntie Alice please??
« on: Friday 21 September 07 17:58 BST (UK) »
Hi Everyone!!!

I'm back again! After the fabulous response I had to my last photo I thought I would try another one! so if you thought you were in for a quiet weekend......forget it!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D  LOL

This is my Auntie Alice. Now, I haven't got a clue why she is standing in front of what looks like a big wooden wheel!  Any educated guesses welcome!!

She is not in too bad condition for her age, but I would love to see her in colour please!

Thank you very much in anticipation!!!  Judy
Best wishes, Judy :-))

Hi Judy
As you've already got some nice colour restorations, here is a B/W version and a sepia tone

Hi Tim!!  Many thanks for your picture. Lovely subdued colours!

Hi Smurf!! Loved your colours too! A bit more vibrant! Thank you!

Hi Skippy!! Thank you for your two versions. I really like the blue eyes you have given her.

Hi Jim!! Lovely colouring!! Thanks very much! Your brown eyes suit her too!!

Hi Mudge!! Thank you for your black & white & sepia. You have really improved on the original and made it clearer.  They are super. Many thanks.

No-one has commented on the wooden block yet  ???

Thanks again to everyone. Much appreciated!!!

Judy  ;)




Best wishes, Judy :-))
