Colorized History

Everyone enjoyed coloring books in their youth. I loved to get creative on those books and colored them all screwed up. Some people enjoy coloring even after they grow up. They are called colonizers and utilizes a lot of reference and trained eyes to determine the original color. Some are very electrifying. Below is some of the colorized historical pictures can be found at r/ColorizedHistory.  The digital manipulation makes those pictures have vivid color as if they were taken yesterday. Almost give you the feeling of time travel.
