Color Correction

[p3net]

Vikki, I have to object to some of your comments regarding a previously-colorized state of the photo. The "spill-over" may also be consistent with photos that were colored after they were taken by the photographer as was common a few decades ago. In this case, there would be no original.

If I am not mistaken, this type of damage was common in earlier color cameras.

p3net,

welcome to RP.

i have to agree with vikki. what you're talking about was not common 'a few decades ago' and we're talking about THIS image which isnt from that time period. you might be referring to studios that kept an artist in shop for colorizing, but that was more than 'a few decades ago'.

It would be helpful if the original poster could address the question.

p3net, I'm not sure what type of colorizing you are refering to. Are you refering to the mass produced postcard type colorings or the hand tinted oils done by photographers? Either way, this is not one of those.

Vikki, I was referring to the hand-colorization type that some did -- yes, after research, up till the 1940's or so when color photography became popular. How can you be sure?

Hi
I am new in the forum, and just having a look around. I agree with you Vikki, that is a color in job for sure.
