Why stop at colour, why not go for a full Artificial Intelligence, Deep Neural Network, Generative Adversarial Network, colourised likeness!?

Thanks Limes, an interesting result with the individual photo. I keep looking at it and can't work out if it's made him look younger or not.

It's a still from from an animated computer generated likeness, so he's actually looking slightly away from the camera now. I tried to get the same head position but there wasn't a frame with head and eyes just right. The likeness should be the same. If anything, the process can deepen wrinkles, like crow's feet and brow furrows.

this is a photo of leonard bradnock who passed away on 31st dec 2021 aged 94 and i am posting it for our member jackie pritchatt in the hopes that some of our experts can tidy it up and make it sharper as it may be used in the funeral service..i think it best to keep it in sepia or black and white

many thanks
