photo colourisation
Colour images have been around since Victorian times but colour film didn't evolve until the early 1930s and even then black and white photographs were still popular up to the 1960's.
There are two ways to enhance you photos, one is by giving it the old vintage look by applying a sepia tint or alternatively some natural colours.... varying tones and shades can bring your pictures back to life. I've seen a numerous websites that claim to add photo colourisation your images using just a few clicks, and they'll charge you a considerable sum for doing it. Results are not always accurate either.
Colourisation is free if you submit a mono photo for restoration......just pay for one extra print
If your photo is of good quality and you submit it for colourising only, a minimum donation of £5 will be required, you can nominate which of my charities you would like it donated to.

This Sepia image is ok it might benefit from cropping, but doing so shortened the lamp post consequently giving a compressed look
Colourising the photo by AI left many objects plain sepia colour (eg.) the baskets and the flowers.... this is why AI is not accurate, usually inconsistent. Hand coloured, the image looks fine.
