Re: Colorizing black and white photos

Hi Nick,


You're right. Interpretations are interpretations. We have some Luftwaffe documents about specific colors and some authentic color photos which, granted, due to age, are likely color shifted to some degree. But we can't take an all or nothing approach. Good books have been written about the subject but they are now priced beyond what the average researcher can afford. Citations regarding sources or assumptions, and the reasoning behind them, along with color illustrations would be nice. However, this should be a message we should send to all publishers.


Best,
Ed
