This is my colorized version of "Woman and her dog in the Harlem section," snapped in 1943 by Gordon Parks. View full size.
thank you everyone
I appreciate the kind words
Wow, a incredibly beautiful work of colorization. Parks would be proud!
I never would have guessed that this one was colorized.
I would never guess it was colorized. Great work!
These colorizations are remarkable. I wish I knew how they do it.
One of the best I have seen. The dog is especially convincing. Still, there is something like the "uncanny valley" with colorizing. To me, this looks like a genuine color photo but my brain is still telling me something is artificial. When I first saw the photo, I thought it was a set from a movie or a play.
Would like to know more about the work that went into this and how long it took.
I knew that dog, and you have his ears too dark. B-
Just kidding. Great job.
I was surprised to see this was colorized. I was confused for a moment when I read the previous comment.
If a person didn't know it was a B&W photo they'd never know the difference.
