Not to degrade your work, but as an old fart, I prefer the noir et blanc.

I'll grant that most 'old-timey' images take on a sort of 'that just ain't right' sort of appearance once they get colorized --OMG!!! can anyone imagine the original 1932 flick 'King Kong' getting colorized??? yup, me neither!-- but so far as farts might go....... there are farts and there are such things as Farts With Confidence (or 'FWC' for short).
With 'confidence' you ask? Well, let's just say that if one cannot fart with 'confidence', then one might find themself in need of a change of drawers.
Or (it) Depends(tm), as some may say.
<edit:> So who's finally going to colorize that Amstel Saddam's "Moonrise Over Hernando's" picture? Seems about time, doesn't it? <end of edit, and probably more, too>

"Most people" would not give a tinker's dagnabbit about this foto. And rightfully so. It ain't their kin, it ain't in their shoebox of grammy's hand-me-down photos, and it could otherwise end up in somebody's town dump, were push to come to shove.
But it's important to the friend who entrusted me with it. And she's a really good friend. And (my) time --thankfully-- isn't money. Because it's my time, however many eternities of it I may have left.

Huh? What's with this "." business, 13? What happened to the re-do you briefly posted then (for whatever reason or reasons, AI or otherwise) deleted? It wasn't all that bad. Considering, of course, that you didn't have the (1.4 Gb) source file that I have to fiddle with.....
Sorry about that...I didn't think it was that great and I changed my mind...again, sorry.
Some people will always find fault, but they don’t matter. You should be happy, and your friend delighted with this. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of very good!
You've piqued my interest, I'm going to have to try my hand at this editing feature as I have quite a few old B&W family photos. I have already scanned and done a bit of processing on many of these photos, but will now will see if I can add some color.
