My guess would be 1940s.

Hello Carol,
Sent it to a relative who thinks our Grandmother is the lady in front of the lady standing at the back she has her hand on the shoulders of our Gran ??
If that is the case Winifred was born 1888, not very good with dating photos they look older than 52 plus what do you think ??

It could be late decade but I still think it's 1940s based on photos I have, the shoulders on the ladies sleeves are a big clue.

Must say brilliantly well done DanNC!   Must be Magic and not a sign of smoke and mirrors in sight.  You could submit it to Penn & Teller and see if they can find your secret.  I'm amazed, does this mean I'll need to forgo my Freebie paint program and actually part wi' some bawbees for a Paid-for app?

Thank you. ;D Having a large photo that's clear and clean always makes it a lot easier. I use Photoshop Elements, the baby brother of the "real" Photoshop. It has what I need, so I haven't updated it in ten years. The current version sells here for $100, about £80 for you.
