Here is a picture of my grandparents on their wedding day. For those of you interested in Australian history, the bride and her two sisters (bridemaids) are the daughters of Michael Kennedy who was killed by Ned Kelly near Mansfield, where the family lived.

You're lucky. Have you thought about putting them on a DVD? That's my plan.

What a beautiful picture, though it's an old one. BTW, what year is it? You are really lucky to have it. Unfortunately I don't have any photo from my parents' wedding, not saying a word about my grandparents' one. Old pictures become really a treasure, 'cause it's a family's history.

I'm lucky to have several old photos, and I hope I can get some onto my site. This was taken either in the late 1980s or early 1900s, I'm not sure. I'm not very good on the old computer, but I hope I can send some of these old pictures to my kids for their children to see. That would be five generations.

I wish I have my grandparent’s photos. All was destroy during the second war.
Just for you to know, old photographs can get new look. If you use Photoshop you can bring back color and sharpness to it.

Thanks for the advice. I'm a novice in this area, but I'll do some playing around, and see what I can do.

Thank you very much for sharing the photographs.You are really lucky to have the pictures of your grandparents wedding. We don't even have all the pictures of my parents wedding. The photos were given to a shop for restoration. They lost most of the photos while trying to restore. I like the black and white photos. It looks much better and will not lose it's nostalgia. Regards

Thanks for the comments astroo, but actually it's not the black and white photo, it's pre those days, it's the little one under my avatar. You're right it's nice to share these, especialy with my grandchildren
