---It is social suicide to ignore the schedule and cause a tie-up like this---

Rob, I can imagine a prettier situation rather than living in a boarding house with little or no privacy. See by the look on the faces on these ladies, that they aren't that enthusiastic, but that they accept this in a resigned way. Your perfect way of colorization doesn't change that. You may you've given us some color in their lives now, but think that in that era their life was pretty colorless as depicted on the original B&W photograph.
Excellent job again, my friend!

Well Enid Roselyn and Bluma seem to be waiting patiently albeit not very happily. 8 minutes - that is a very short time !
Your colouring is spot on Rob especially the candlewick gown shade.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Some unhappy people are waiting and are less than patient at this time. I went to a military college and, as freshmen, we had five minutes to shower, brush teeth and get back to our room and into the rack (bed) - that was the time for twelve of us with three showers and three sinks. To not complete the tasks within the time limit meant pushups for everyone. With that incentive, we never waited long.
