Classic Black and White Photos Colourised

Swedish artist Sanna Dullaway works on colourization of old black and white photos. Dullaway's color restoration project breathes new life into these aged, colorless images. Though many of them are wonderful, in their own right, there's something new and fresh about the photographs after the artist has reworked the coloring in Photoshop.

‘City Silhouette’ Portraits by Jasper James

Over the past decade Jasper James, currently based in Beijing, has lived and worked in New York and London covering assignments around the globe for some of the world’s leading magazines, design and advertising clients. Of this series, City Silhouettes, he writes:

‘These photos are part of an ongoing project that I have been shooting for the past few years in various cities around Asia. Sometime in 2008, the number of people living in urban areas outnumbered those living in rural areas for the first time in history. I thought it would be interesting to shoot portraits of these city dwellers combined with the image of a cityscape.’
