Your wish is my command.

Mega asked for a larger version of my avatar to see the flower colouration. My Mum loved it - but admitted a few weeks later that her wedding flowers had been pink!

Very nice. That old photo is in need of a serious touch up. ;)

Thanks.

Personally I think making old photos look like they were taken yesterday takes something away in terms of the charm.

Nice before and after. :) I wouldn't change a thing on the old one. Looks just fine to me.

That's great Damian! Thanks for posting!

I can see why your mum likes it so much! :)
This image gives me motivation to try it on some of my old family photos.

Your parents look great in the recent photo. Your pop looks so fit that I doubt I'd challenge him to an arm wrestling match. :)

Glad you liked it. I'm working away on a few others and will let you see the results.

My dad is 74 and still has arms like a blacksmith. In fact I was at his house yesterday and he was man-handling 8x6 fence panels by himself - repairing a fence for his 45 year old neighbour! :)

Wow! It does indeed look like your dad has some meaty hands! You should try some close ups of just his hands holding the 'baby' in that shot!!

Wonderful photos Damian. Looks like you come from good healthy stock. :) :)
Now get busy and change those flowers to PINK :lol: :lol: :lol:

He's been a grafter all his life and has the biggest fingers I have seen. His skin is as tough as leather. I've pushed a pen and typed on a keyboard for my living and consequently am frequently ashamed whan I have to ask him to open a jam jar! :D

I working on it! Yesterday my mum gave me a photo that is 90 years old and asked me what I could do with it! It features her mother as a baby and has been scratched and drawn on! :(

I always wondered where they got the saying "they don't make them like they used to" :D

I love the old pic.

Thanks.

It does seem that people of my dad's generation where/are more robust than people today. Whoever heard of dustmites, wheat intollerance or ADHD in th 1930's? :)

Tyhey're still going strong. I think my dad has every intention of living to 150! :)
