 B 1901 occasional seaman steward
Hes at the back of a photo of his sisters 1921 wedding
Hilda howell b 1903 to "Tom ".Edwards  which had been folded

The crease spoils his face
Carol requested some photos for restoration board but this one will be a challenge

I.ll post a close up of him in uniform to compare bur reaise it might be a near impossible task

Oops forgot to attach ,x added 2 more for facial comparison

Bad lighting but same smile

              Face replaced He probably looks a lot younger than he should

[brigidmac]

Thats truly incredible he looks 20 which would have been his age

Im sure his direct descendants will be thrilled ..I.ll keep you posted .. im still tracing them thru ancestry

Thanks Trishanne

Tomkin.im trying to upload download or whatever to get photo  on to my photo album
I think I.ll work it out in an hour or so

Is it easier to restore photos if I post original colour ?

& does this seem the right size ..in.which case 900 is my new magic number

                   "Is it easier to restore photos if I post original colour ? "

                I've no idea.  Most pics are B&W or tinted .  If it's a colour we

          would restore it as colour. When you are scanning though , even if your pic is B&W,

           always select colour mode.   Again read Cazza's tutorial
