Some of you will have seen my tweets over the weekend about me restoring a photo for my Nannan.
It’s a very old photo, dating back some 50 years and shows her, her mother and her mother-in-law on my Nannan’s wedding day.
The photo took me ages to restore, but was totally worth it to see the look on my Nannan’s face, when I presented it to her on her birthday.
Priceless!
The photo and the original are below.

Restored photo

Not a bad result, even if I do say so myself. :-D

I’m loving this restoration Mr Haynes. I’ve got a photo I want to restore myself but wasn’t sure about attempting it. But may have to now…and if I can’t do it, I now know a man who can! :-P

It’s not too difficult, it’s just time consuming.
Give it a go!
The look on my nans face was priceless!
