Please bring some character to these photos
« on: Monday 03 December 12 16:32 GMT (UK) »

Hi everyone

I know I have been here a lot lately and hope I’m not being too greedy! Please tell me if I am, I won’t be offended!

I have these two pictures that I hope you can restore. The first one is really bland with absolutely no character …I was wondering if a bit of colour would soften them up?
The second one is just old and faded ..I would love him to look a bit more perky!

Thank you all in advance for your time, I so appreciate it!  :)
