....that's a link to a different site where a fellow from Australia, a professional photographer, has taken old pictures of motorcycles and people at an event in Sydney, Australia (sometime in the early 30's from the look of things) and reworked the photos with software to sharpen and colorize them with remarkable results. You might find the new images to look sort of fake, and you might not like them, but the motorcycles are the stars of the show!

WOW! That brings a whole lot of perspective into what these people and bikes really looked like. The original B&W photos have no where near the personality as these. Thanks for sharing. Maybe someone on this forum could play with the software and add their photos to this thread.

Thanks for posting that link, Harry. The photographer/restorer is a genuine artist and has a remarkable talent for getting colors that fit the time and setting. Much of that process has to be a 'best-guess', but that is in the eye of the artist and I think he got it just right.

Thank You Harry~those pictures are remarkable! The photographer had 100% insight to capture those times & Machinery. We're fortunate they survived.
