bringing old photos back to life
Some time back, on Kamini's blog Saffron and Silk, I read about Val who adds color to old black and white photos and I was completely intrigued. The before and after shots were quite astounding in terms of details and selection of colors, since Val goes into details of what natural dyes were available at the time and so on. I looked up Val's website and details of her photo coloring work and immediately starting thinking of which photographs I could ask her to add color to.
Here's a photo of my grandparents....
and here is the colored version....
A photo of my great-grandfather....
and the colored version....
and here's my husband as a baby....
and here's the colored version...
I'm really happy with the results, and the time that Val took to do these photos. Thank you so much Val. You're a gem.

Unfortunately the only colour version I can see is the one of your great grandfather. Is it my browser or did they vanish from your page?
