Thank you Terry.  It really does bring the photos to life to see them in glorious colour.  Amazing that 70 years later this is possible!

Great photo Graham, just to say l am constantly amazed at the results that can be obtained.

I am begging my folks for old photos now to see what can be restored.

A collective thanks to all of you who keep us gobsmacked!!

Am I about to betray my technical ignorance? How does the restorer know the colour of the blazer stripes unless they are told?
