Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
We can't ask her anymore, but think that she hardly could breathe, Rob, because of her tight corset. Your excellent way of colorization gave her some blushes on her cheeks as well. In normal situations we could blame you for misleading us, but the, perfectly by you used, artistic freedom allows you to do so, ☺ ☺ ☺ .
Great work again, my friend!

Hour glass figure, I too wonder if breathing would be difficult for her. She is beautiful and you brought her to life to all of us.

Another beautiful job Rob in the colorization of Ms. LaRue - that dress is gorgeous - I suppose she elected to stand for this photograph so she could show off her hourglass figure - Excellent Work!!!!!!!!!

Now THAT's what I call an "hourglass figure"; she must be in some pain from that bizarre tradition of trying to make themselves attractive by crushing themselves with a too tight corset. She is a very beautiful lady and the eye shadow you've given her gives her a more modern appearance. I looked at the original and I do see a shadow over her eyes but I'm thinking it may simply be a shadow, and not necessarily eye shadow makeup. This may be artistic license on your part, Rob, but it certainly works for her. She's a looker... that's "looker" with an "L". :o)

A fascinating image from the era of big hats and dislocated diaphragms. It's so impressive how you've been able to add deep color to very shadowed areas, especially in the hat. And the overall color scheme seems reasonable, as she may have actually appeared. Although the skin tone is very pale, I know that was considered an ideal at the time and too much sun exposure was avoided. Tan lines were a little ways in the future. Ms. la Rue was a striking woman, with a broad, strong face, and your restrained treatment compliments her perfectly. I hope she'd be proud, and pleased, that you've given her new life, of a kind, through your work.

There are more things in heaven and earth,
than are dreamt of in your philosophy. W.S.
Just now I viewed gr8fulted's "Portrait Pose In Passing" and commented on it this way: A few days ago I commented on one of Rob's (rvdb) colorized historic photo submissions, one "Grace La Rue resize edit", and I pulled a copy of it to my desktop, saving it for a time when I'd come across a perfect match for it. Grace was a portrait orientation so I pulled this one as well, cropped it down to the same orientation and size as Rob's, placed them side-by-side and inserted "115 YEARS" over the line between the two. The finished image (for my monitor wallpaper) illustrates how the clothing styles and dress may have changed over the years, but the confidence and openness of these two beautiful women are the same, despite the 115 years that separates them." A successful confederation that neither you or Ted were aware of, and I'm glad I could help with it.

What a difference the colorization makes in these photos. Really takes you back in time, the clarity and emphasis of your revisions bring out a desire to know these individuals and especially what they are thinking.
