This is a beautiful shot, Stephen, but for the purplish cast on their faces.

Yeah, I'd think B&W or sepia would be the best bet, too.

Excellent Riny, I wondered about B&W as it certainly would suit the era perfectly.
I have another one with the sepia treatment that I may upload tomorrow lol
Totally different to this one :-)
Thanks again my friend, super to hear from you again.

Hi Paul,
Yes I agree, I thought long and hard about converting it. Will hopefully put another up tomorrow if I remember :-)
Best wishes,
Steve

There's an awful colour cast here that spoils what is otherwise a quite amazing image. They really do look the part, so I think black and white or sepia is the way to go, with perhaps a tad more contrast. Would be a fave for me if it worked out.
Regards, Gary

Hi Stephen,
They look great! And compliment each other too. I personally like the colours, and feel the muted colours work to enhance the 'old' look. best wishes

Hi Melanie,
Many thanks indeed, I also like the muted colours but looking at some of the comments they are not to everyones taste lol
Well, they say photography can be subjective !
Thanks again,
Steve

I am mainly "elsewhere" at the moment but like to keep popping back here where my interest was first awakened. Great to see you again.

A great period picture, Steve. It looks like it came straight out of the 40s. Glad to see you back. I too think a change to B & W would be more in keeping with the period. A well done portrait, Steve. Regards, Larry.

Stephen,
I haven't visited usefilm in a couple of months but I was pleased to see you have apparently returned. I really like this one. Very 40ish but I wonder if it wouldn't look better in b&w? I especially like the Red Devil's uniform. That is what you call your paratroopers, isn't it?

Hello Jack, lovely to hear from you.
I do still pop in on Usefilm from time to time - I owe this site a lot for all the friends I have met both online and in person and have learned so much.
I am pretty busy with other jobs that keep me away from posting as often as I would like to though !
All the very best wishes Jack.
Steve

This is a touching photo, Steve. The couple appear to be straight from Central Casting. Very dedicated, too. What a great tribute. You Britains had a rough time right on your own soil.
