i've lost count of how many times i've watched,The Civil War, by Ken Burn's /Lynn Novick, which btw, includes so many B & W photo's,by Photographer, 'Mathew Brady' so to see them brought back to life, in of colour,& through advances in modern technology, is a truly,marvelous experience. Well done, Chroma Whisperer.
My grandmother was told first hand accounts of the Civil War by her grandmother, and living in Alabama during that war was not pleasant. Terrible hardship and hunger.
My background is in B&W historical photography (BBC Hulton, now Getty, photo library). The beauty in the quality of glass negatives and early mono print techniques have such value. We have become a generation of 'instant gratification', like a sugar rich diet. Our forebears took time and effort to produce images of great depth and beauty. We snap away gaily on our 'smart' phones, not valuing most of the images we take. Imagination has been subsumed by instant gratification. Just my opinion, of course! 😊
We always notice how Sharpe the old pictures are compared to now. The cameras used by most people in the 1970s and 80s gave us a whole family album of blurry bad colors. If you had an expensive camera that was manually set. They are much better. But we used an Instamatic not knowing our kid's pictures would all be green and faded.
Very important especially now. As we speak America is facing the same problems right now. Upcoming elections are also pivotal . USA Democracy or Fascism/CSA 2.0 (MAGA).
It's WEF's One World Gov -[Russia is needed ]- Marxism No Family Values The Banksters want Consumers The reason for Trans revolution WE won't be needed -Robotics 15 minute cities all to be funded by Climate Change Obama used the EPA against corporations he wanted to shackle Carbon Tax Plants breath Carbon All the money to be made in a One Gov IMF World Bank and their Magazines "The Atlantic Thats why Trump gets bad press
The CSA was not fascist. We merely did not like federal government high handedness. My ancestors fought and died fighting that intrusivenes. By the way, the USA is NOT a democracy. It is a Constitutional Republic. Where did you go to school? Or did you? Did you not study history or civics?
What is 'hearbreaking' is the obsession with 'colourising' historical imagery using the technology of the period. I find it almost a distortion of reality...stoppit!

With the insanity going on today, we all need to learn from history.

Not all these pictures are from the 1860's.
People have no idea how poor people were in 1860.
My mom's ancestors were part of the underground railroad they would Hide Runaway slaves. My mom's maiden name was Brown.
Everyone got emotional attachments.

Russia is needed only repeating what Viktor Orban Col Douglas Mc Gregor Scott Ritter VMFA- KNOW
Maga is not Fascism. Thats BS. It's just conservative.
