Old Photo re-photographed

A friend of ours who is a local historian asked if it would be possible to reproduce the picture in the centre, which is an old photo behind glass in a sealed frame, so he can use it in his exhibitions (the original belongs to one of the local farming families).

I photographed it using natural light, shading it so I didn't get reflections from the glass, and have cleaned it up a bit and reproduced the mono and sepia versions on either side in this triptych. I will give him full-sized versions of the individual versions so he can choose which he wants to use.

You can see more detail in the large version.

It has kept me quiet for the best part of the afternoon today. MrW has been asleep!
