Power House Mechanic COLORIZATION by Zak Kogut

[zkogut]

Hi Everybody,

This photograph was taken by Lewis Wickes Hine in 1920 and named Powerhouse Mechanic. I chose to color it because I'm a Mechanic and this photo has always been one of my favorites. I hope you enjoy it in color.

Nicely done, would fit in with the steampunk craze if the wardrobe were a bit more elaborate.

Thanks, Donald. You always leave nice comments.

Only when I think something warrants nice comments. I always admire someone who has studied, worked at and mastered a particular skill. This quality doesn't happen by chance. It's the result of learning and a lot of work.

Thank you. I haven't mastered it just yet but when it comes to coloring Caucasian people in a setting I'm familiar with I do alright. I have to work more on getting correct or better looking backgrounds. Thanks for looking as always.

Thanks, Barbara. It does take patience but in the end it's fun to watch the photo come to life with every color I work into it.

Thank you! If you like seeing colorized photos you should stop by the website named Colorized History on Reddit. Some amazingly talented people on there. Thanks for looking!

Very skillfully done. There are so many black & white shots from the past that you could bring to life with your experience.
