1900-1920 - Various types, etc. Soudanese (i.e., Sudanese) with his fife.
This image has only a bit of restoration work, it doesn’t need my help. This is one of those rare images with movement, one photo was taken then another a moment later.

1896 - People on Razzle Dazzle ride, at Coney Island, New York City
Coney Island has so far upgraded this ride 16 times and it’s now known as the Rizzle Fashizzle. It’s kinda scary, and if you look closely, you can see a guy standing in the center of the ride. Wonder how fast it went… I did quite a bit of restoration to this image, and because it’s so grainy I decided on no heavy coloring, seems like it would obscure the details.

1903 - The Music prompts the dainty step (Woman playing piano and another woman dancing.)
Sometimes I’m tired after work, so I try to pick something easy. That was the case with this image. Unfortunately, sometimes I”m wrong. If I never color another palm frond again I’ll be a happy happy girl.
This image was somewhat damaged with faded areas, which is why it looks kind of flashy. I chose it mainly because it’s cute, and the variety of colors it would use for the time lapse. I also went to video with the time lapse, the gif just takes too much space and load time. View the lapse below.
