How to color any black and white photo in 1 minute

Hello friends! Today I want to share with you one very amazing online service, with which you can color any black and white photos absolutely free of charge in almost a matter of seconds. You don’t even need to register (you will find the link to the site at the end of the article). The site is of course in English, but don’t be afraid, I’ll show you everything and tell you with an example.

What can you use this service for?


This tool provides a truly unique opportunity:
  • - See something that no one has seen before. I mean colorize wartime photographs and look at them in a new light. Thus, experiencing new sensations that the photographs of those years convey.
  • - Make it unique present. Imagine it's your father's birthday and you want to surprise him. Scan his old black and white photo, color it using the service and print it. Place it in a frame and it will definitely be an unforgettable gift.

There are many other examples, but I gave the two most significant that came to my mind.

How to use the site?


We go to the site (algorithmia.com).

    The colors turned out just like in old, hand-colored photographs.

    frankly speaking, it doesn’t paint very well
    although for a neural network that doesn’t understand what it’s doing it’s tolerable
    in fact, when I studied Photoshop, even the first colored photographs came out better because a person, unlike a neural network, understands where everything is in a photograph

    And I liked the effect. Only it is advisable to take photographs with a nature background - then it turns out more natural and interesting)))

    To upload a photo, it must be in a certain format, but I don’t have the required b&w photo format...

    figured it out. to upload a photo you need to use the original language in the browser, without translation, but this is not coloring, this is some kind of scam, this program just smeared all the photos with colored spots, which is even a shame to show to anyone
