I know there have been many posts of these old photos, colorized and such; but here are a few more.
Since I believe in the power of monotone, I couldn't help but feel that many of the photos are much more powerful
in the colorized version, especially in the side by side contrasts- could it be the simple fact of the color being more modern and making history come alive, or perhaps is the monotone side made to look "less constrasty" - or what.
