Emily Henderson grown up, help needed with photo top & bottom
« on: Wednesday 02 April 14 01:13 BST (UK) »
Hi All,

At the risk of being greedy, could I ask for help with one more photo please?

This is my Nana Emily Henderson as an adult, about age 18 (ref. "Tidy up Emily & siblings" of a couple of days ago) and I would like to print and frame it alongside the photo of her as a child.

However, I received the photo by email as a snapshot of a framed photo, which cannot be removed from the frame and as you can see, the top and bottom of the oval board around the photo have been cut off.

Would anyone be able to restore the top and bottom of the oval so that I can print it as  a whole? I don't have the programme or the skills to do this myself so am hoping someone will be able to do it, or come up with another suitable idea.

Many thanks if you can help once more.

Regards Eliza.

Oh great! Thankyou both very much, Tommy and Diesse.

Yes, round is fine, I can print them nicely now and hang it beside the kiddy one. The colouring also looks lovely Tommy, ta very much. I forgot to describe that although you got it pretty right. Her hair was brunette with an ash tint, much as you have it, and blue eyes.

 I only remember her from the knees down as I was quite small the last time I saw her. I remember she wore thick stockings and black 'Minnie Mouse' shoes when she was elderly.

I think the photo was taken about 1904.

Many thanks again,

Regards Eliza.

Thanks Di,

He does a nice job of colouring doesn't he? One day I mean to learn, it looks an addictive hobby though.

Hi Yvonne,

Thankyou very much, that's much better. It looks like an oval now, much nicer.

It's quite inspiring seeing the changes wrought by the rootschat restorers.

Many thanks,
Eliza.
