And I've just realised that in the photo of me that matched the Blues Brothers, I was wearing dark glasses
Haha! The glasses might have not helped, if it couldn’t see your eyes clearly. It’s worked best when I have had clearer photos.

Yes, that obviously makes sense. I shall have to try again.

Did you try comparing two photos of the same person at different ages, and did it work?

Yes. I've tried a few times and had very good results from it. I used photos of my Grandma when she was about 7, 30 and 80 and the match was either 99% or 100%.

Also, had a photo of my grandad's cousin as a man of about 30. I also had a school class photo, but was unsure which was him.

It picked out one of the photos as having an 80% likeness. The next likeness was 32% and then all the way down to 12% (there were about 16 boys in the photo).

Goodness, that's excellent.

I tried photos of my mum aged about 8 and 30-odd, but I only got about 20%.

However, you're a lot younger than me, so your photos were probably better quality
