Photo for Update Please
« on: Saturday 18 May 13 15:26 BST (UK) »
Hello  ;D

Just wondering if I could get this photo of my lovely late grandfather updated please. What I would like is the background to be faded out and in black and white, if you know what I mean. Not sure when it was taken either. Have a play around with it  :)
