Pe-ru-na Cures Catarrh (Colorized): 1903

This time I challenged myself. There are no color references of this location, circa 1903. My goal was to make it as alive as if this photograph was taken today. The biggest challenge was the color of the road. Eventually I spotted some snow patches on one of the roofs and that made me realize this was snow on the ground. (maybe early snow since the trees on the right side have leaves). View full size.

Great job as usual, Avzam

Alive it is and beautiful as well.

Now that's a funny sounding name to me.

I'm Finnish and in Finnish, PERUNA means potato.

Now I have a popular children's song in Finnish playing in my head and first verse goes like this: Peruna on pyorea, peruna on soikea. Peruna on ruoka ihan oikea.

[Catchy. - Dave]
