You really do great work. I hope you have an album of all of these colorized and uncolorized images. What a great cocktail table book that would be.

Okay, I have a problem with this one, Jim. My first impression was that the colors appeared too "washed out." I suspect it's because the background and skin tones are on the same spectrum. There also appears to be a blown out area of light (the entrance to the cave?). Sorry, this one doesn't do it for me.

I find the soft colors naturally soothing and appropriate for what I would call a innocent nude. I totally agree how ever that the bright light at the left needs to be eliminated.

This one really grabbed me. I think your colorizing is improving with every post. I see improvement in the water and waves and even the beach sand as well as the skin tones of the girls. I enjoy seeing your b&w photos colorized, and look forward to more.

Viewing this on my phone where I can rock back n forth between the colorized and b&w images to compare details, some spots are more prominent in the colorized and other spots are more prominent in the b&w. I don't know why. The skin tones are very smooth in their translations. But where the light is entering the cave, both images take on a posterized effect. This is what my semi trained eye sees.

You probably know way more about pp than I do, so take the next with a grain of salt.

A member of my photography club has been attempting to teach us Light Room and Photo Shop via Zoom, a little beach week. I am learning, but by no means an expert. From what I have learned, one thing I'm wondering that might make a difference would be to apply a gradient ND filter from the light source toward the model. And maybe applying a mask to the darker areas above and below so they won't be effected by the ND filter. I don't know if it would help reduce the posterizing, if that was caused by the bright light, but maybe give it a try.
