Face comparison Software, Photo's maybe Dolly and Isabella ?
« on: Tuesday 24 November 15 16:28 GMT (UK) »
Like many people I have a lot of old photos of people I do not recognise. Those photos I do recognise are much older in years, so is there any software (reasonably priced) that I can use to see if any of the younger are in fact those older people.

Hope this makes sense
see the examples

Thanks

Hi Arthur,

There are a number of shareware programs available for facial comparison.  I have never tried them and have no idea how good they are.

You can find them at the link below.

Would be interesting to see how you get on.

I am sure there are people on here who will give you their view on whether the two pictures are one and the same person.  My thoughts - Same nose but mouth looks different.

My first thought was that the two photos were not of the same person, however the chin and nose and face shape are similar, so I think perhaps they are the same person or closely related.  :) It is more difficult as the top photo is not so sharp and she is smiling.

Now I have looked again, like Ruskie, I can also see the similarity in the chin as well.
