Cookie99....That is a beautiful original photograph of your grandfather. It's just wonderful.

No offense to the forumites, but all of the post processing ruined it. Colorizing it...retouching it...just destroys the vibe original. IT looks absolutely stunning on it's own merit with wrinkles...crinkles...​bad levels and all. Just leave it alone :)
