I adore this photo - yet to know who it is

Would love it if you could restore and maybe one with a bit of colour

Many thanks once again

A colour version for you. To be honest i really had no clue what was the decoration or style of the hats - so that is probably completely wrong  :-\

Thanks

I can see why you adore this photo, it's lovely.  I think the ladies are all proudly showing their Easter bonnets - and trying to outdo each other.

Sue, I'm so glad you like the photo, it was such a pleasure to work on.  I am hopeless at dating photos I'm afraid, but I think it looks Edwardian, so early 1900s, but I could be years out!!
