• Famous World War 2 Photos Colorized (More to be added overtime.)
    3 replies, posted
In this Thread, I want to post photos that I have colorized through Photoshop the best I can, but mostly in the most respectable way possible. I will include captions of the information that was discovered through the taking of these photographs and I will add more overtime in here. I encourage others to post their doings of colorizing World War 2 photos on here as well and hopefully turn this into a thread in the future. For now here is my current collection of photos that I have colorized. https://i.ibb.co/QPBgW7b/omaha2.jpg Robert Capa storming the beaches of Normandy with the first wave. His photo show's the casualties and the chaos being inflicted. https://i.ibb.co/GPz8NBX/omaha4.jpg A second photo of Robert Capa's showing a wider scope of the infantry. Some of the troops have now perished and lie prone in the water. https://i.ibb.co/r4z8NjK/omaha1.jpg Robert Capa taking a photo of the state the troops find themselves in after having reached to the beach once the tide began to settle. https://i.ibb.co/09Z6qWg/omaha3.jpg Another photo from behind showing more landing crafts approaching and troops trapped behind the hedgehog's, keeping cover from enemy Machine Gun Fire. https://i.ibb.co/L8Whrz2/deadgerman2color.jpg A German Machine Gunner lies dead in the Bulge after suffering from a gunshot wound to the throat. https://i.ibb.co/pv6Skpr/deadgerman1-color.jpg A Wehrmacht Soldier lies dead from a gunshot wound to the left temple. The photo's of Axis Leader's would be scattered right next to him. https://i.ibb.co/12DwM0C/bowman-color.jpg A photo taken of PFC. Raymond Bowman in the balcony after having been killed by a German Sniper. The apartment he died in was later renamed after him in his honor. https://i.ibb.co/TKXBfg3/aftermathcolor.jpg An American Infantryman reloads his rifle next to two dead Germans as he advances with his company.
Wow. Neat stuff, you've done a hell of a job. You may want to tag some of them as NSFW to be safe
Here are some more photo's to add to the collection. https://i.ibb.co/7X0xVhB/american1.jpg An American Marine advances towards a fortified position with his company under heavy fire. https://i.ibb.co/jDX4ZVD/japanese1.jpg Japanese Forces wait for the order to advance after being aided with Air Support in the Battle of Hong Kong. https://i.ibb.co/PZjSWKy/russians1.jpg Soviet Troops push forward to an entrenched German position armed with both Russian and German weaponry.
Nicely done! It will be interesting when editing black/white film into colour becomes more common and easier to do.
