Colors are a bit to geyish. Most automatic colorizing programs don´t
work well.

It's photoshop, given the quality of the photo it's the best of a bad photo. Some photo's resist the tinkering :D

Ot may be best to leave it untampered. I don‘t see merit in colorizing pictures if they look like randomized. The original b/w is usually much nicer to look at.

The other side of Elvis has been coloured in
Hiding the person to his side
Only the finger tips remain on his shoulder

It's a shame the fingers have been removed, this could be the only photo that exists of Elvis meeting "Thing" from the Addams Family"...

"The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now if you know what you're worth then go out and get what you're worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits."

To all the nay Sayers, the original photo was already sh*t, the person who blocked out the picture of someone they must have not wanted in the image made it basically unusable. So to take that out and try and keep the picture from the pits of hell is better in my opinion than it going to waste.

All you picture Nazis are happy to look at all the picture altered by the studios and RCA are just hypocrites. Just ignore the post rather pass pissy comments. And it's not AI filters it's photoshop.

Got some serious anger issues going on here. Maybe forums were people share different opinions on topics aren‘t a thing for you then?

I certainly have my trigger moments thats for sure. What grinds my gears if you have a negative comment at least be informative and be detailed rather than some lazy trite comment. I know a lot of people prefer the old black and white photos and I can acually relate. But, don't go into a topic that is telling you what it is and then just put your negative bile on the comment section.... just move onto the topics you like...

I have repaired literally hundreds of pictures I see all over the internet and being used be official Elvis products, when people don't know they are repaired they take it for what it is without any comment. Most of what I post on here is the quick 15-20 min colourizing and repaires. I have done some that have take hours if not days. I don't put them on here as people end up using them and selling them. So when I do get pissy it's because I have invested something.
