From my Grandfather's album. 1918. (Enlarge).

From my Maternal Grandfather's album. His brother Great uncle Savvas id second from the left, the one with the lovely hair...:-).

very good documentary family shot

Well done my friend, I can look at old photos all day long, they have a certain innocence to them. Yes a great head of hair - This is a great share, made my day

A great restoration of an old family photo/memento. In another 100 years will todays electronic images still be around when all the computers and hard drives are in landfill. Or lost in the millions of selfies taken every day.

A good job, really beautiful.

Fantastic restoration.  Old, new, photos show posed faces, prepared clothing and combed (?) hair; but it's the shoes that tell a story... Mike

Excellent restoration Dimitri, the outcome is much better than the torn original, but tell me something my friend why are they all holding jackets with the obvious marks from a tailor's chalk on them?

Mehmet, as always thank you very much !.

Tony, thank you I too love old photos...Asimov wrote a science fiction novel called: 'The end of eternity'. In it he describes an elevator that was a time machine. Old photos are the same for me. They transport you to a bygone era and they stimulate the imagination.

Gerald, thank you very much and is very true what you are saying about computers, but the past remains.

Maurizio, thank you very much my friend !.

Mike, thank you . You have detective's eyes, I also noticed their shoes especially my great uncle's. They had two pairs of shoes, one for church which lasted them for years and one they wore every day which they bought every year for every day use. Boot polish was expensive -:).

Mihali, thank you very much my friend and in answer to your question they were tailors, some of them, apprentices some of them master tailors. People in those days acquired

many skills by switching professions. My great uncle Savas had 7 that I know of. My Grandfather had 17..-:).

Κάπως έτσι Δημήτρη, απ' τα χρόνια 'κείνα, θα βγήκε και η φράση "μάθε τέχνη και άστηνε" ε?. Πάντως σίγουρα κανένας απ' τη φωτογραφία δεν πρέπει να ήτανε κουρέας... :-)

Beautiful work Dimitris.  I miss this style of formal portraiture - that can be studied for quite some time.

Well done,

David
