My Wife as a young girl.
« on: Sunday 06 December 09 16:38 GMT (UK) »
Hello to all, ;D

May I ask for your services in restoring / improving on this picture of my dear wife as a young girl of 8 yrs, a clean up of the B/W would be great, a little colour even better, light brown hair, blue eye's, blue and white check dress with blue cardigan and brown shoes, if possible can we improve or lose the doorway, I'll leave the surround to your imagination as usual  ;) ;) ;)

Many thanks in advance.

Peter. ;)

Lovely photo and interpretations ... dress brought to mind a similar one I had with little flocked spots on the fabric, mine was blue and younger sister had a pink one  :) mare
