Hello Carol,  I love everything about your wonderful restoration of the photo especially the warmth
of the sepia tones.  These create a lovely contrast and bring out the detail of the costumes and hats
The misty effect around the perimeter of the photo is a lovely touch and gives focus to the group.
Thankyou for your time and expertise in restoring the photo.

Regards,
Jen.

p.s.  Wiggy has mentioned to me that there is 'something' in the photo on the right of the lady with
        the glasses.  Looks like a small face to me, could it be a baby (looking from the side) and
        wearing a bonnet?  Can be seen in the colour version by Trishanne.

It was a pleasure to do Jen and you are very welcome. You are always so appreciative which makes it all the more worthwhile 
Carol

Hi Gadget,  Apologies for the delay in replying, have had some internet issues, I'm using the
local library to reply.

Thankyou so much for your 2 great restorations of the photo, you have achieved such clarity and
crispness and revealed every detail Have just noticed that the man on the extreme left in spite of
his dapper appearance and pose has very scuffed shoes  and so have the 2 ladies next to him.  It
appears to be very dusty and rocky underfoot.

Thankyou also for the enlargement of the area near the lady in specs. it could be a baby, not sure
though.  The lady to the left does have an awkward pose, maybe she is sitting on a table.

I love both of your restorations but the 'retro' is my favourite, it reminds me of the sepia photos
that were popular before colour photography.  My Mum used to colour sepia photos with oils, she
coloured the photo I use as my avatar.  I appreciate your time and expertise.

Regards,
Jen.

I  enjoyed doing it, Jen.

 I do hope your internet gets sorted for you. Is it still the result of the fallen  fallen branch?
