If you could guess with good accuracy one of the colors in the photo and work from there you could probably get good colors in relation to the tone of another.

Shit is all bottled up in my head.

Well if you can de-bayer the color it should be possible to bayer the color to get it close. Work backwards from extracting the Luminescence.

I think the color really adds a new degree of reality for me. The old black and whites that we've all seen a million times almost become fictitious in our minds. With the color it reminds us that these people were real people and these powerful events really happened.

That was my first thought...and it still could true it is just that...there are so many ways the same image can be black and white after adjusting contrast...tones...highlights...a whole slew of things.

So my next thought is it prob can't be reversed that easy because you don't know if a recipricol process is a 1:1 match. However there is enough information to do what they did if you are really ****ing good and a bit artistic.

Except for the beach shot with the pretty cloud and possibly the monk on fire, I think the images have been diminished, not enhanced.

I agree with this take for the most part. Especially the sailor kissing his girl pic... The color version didn't really add any emotion for me.

This picture is so much better with colored people in it.
