A Little De-Fuzzying, Please
« on: Monday 14 June 10 19:02 BST (UK) »
I'm a bit new to this board so please excuse me if I slip up posting this; I'll try my best.

Here is a picture of OH's gt-gt-grandfather, taken about 1917 (?) in Gloucestershire.  It's a bit indistinct, but I love the gaiters  :) and the fact that we didn't know it existed until last week!  Can he be made a little "crisper" do you think?

Thanks.

That's clearer, thank you - it seems to have been a very sunny day but he's still in his jacket and waistcoat!

Another from me. The hat he's wearing is doing its job of keeping the sun off his face too well!

Fabulous!  Thank you all very much :) :)

Irene - you have managed to hint at the "Ireland stare" from under the shade of the hat - great job!
