Coloring book fetish

[Don Pyeatt]

Here's another photo "colorized" with Photoshop. The original was on NASA'a
photo archive. It was small and really smudged up with JPEG compression
artifacts. The final file is large enough to make a 4x8-foot poster.

I replaced the back-seat engineer with a likeness of local aviation pioneer
Ormer Locklear (go ahead - Google him) and used colors of JN-4 "Jenny"s that
he flew here during WWI.

Again, cheers, jeers or ho-hums are welcomed.

A 55 yo B/W print on a current digital camera photo.

Think "ART".

A valiant attempt, but it came out looking like a plastic model. I doubt
that I could do any better though.
Cheers!

I like the colour/B&W contrast.

Hi, Paul,

I totally agree. The original was just too small to work with to make a
believable conversion. I may contact the NASA archive to see if a larger
TIFF version is available and start over from scratch. Clear vintage photos
of JN-4s are very hard to find.
