Very impressive work! Nice job with the skin tones and shading.

The retouch you made on the pics were great. Except for the gun in gramy's hand. It made the pics look like a scene from a mafia movie... But anyway, it's a great job!

That last version you posted is spectacular. While the ones you previously completed were excellent, you honed it to a point where I couldn't even tell that it was photoshopped (except the one with the gun, of course lol). Seriously, this is fantastic. The choice to make the flowers white was also a great choice. It blends in very well. Flowers, in general, are hard to color from photographs.

Either way, great job! :)

I think that you are going to have to clone your way to victory if you want to remove the shadow. Add a curves adjustment layer so you can tell shadow from suit.

On another note, I can see a couple of problem spots in the image. The B&W picture hung above your grandfather is too in focus, it jars with the actual image and its softness. The picture also has no frame, a minor detail but important, people of that generation would have had it framed. The shadow that your grandfather is casting has not been shown in the B&W image, it just stops suddenly.
