Another. I am seeing if the skin rones can be calmed down a bit. This image is another repost from that PlusX Archive of Olde.
Nice work, Jim! Your examples demonstrate that it's not a piece of cake colorizing old B&W photos. Overall, I think you've hit the mark, except for some washing out of the flesh tone on the outstretched leg. Once again, I'm picking nits -- I am in awe of the transformations you've been able to make. The coloring and pattern of the dress is simply phenomenal! Is that the way you remember it, or are you taking license with the coloring?
Please accept my comments in the way they are given: Too often, we seek perfection in the photos we take, and this is nearly impossible to achieve. You are working with fifty year-old images (negatives?), and the quality of old images suffer from the ravages of time. You have done remarkable work. Kudos!
