  I've become addicted to trying to bring back the original vibrancy of these images. My first test is here: www.flickr.com/photos/alec_fredericks/2198620547/ By adjusting the color balance, contrast and levels, I think I've found a way to bring back the natural colors and facial details ravaged by time.

  Her blouse was made from the same fabric used to package the processed sugar.

  These people don't look happy at all compared to some of the photos of the white American field workers.

• wesvaz said:

  bf5390: they had to work really hard to eat very little and live a hopeless life of work and no progress-staying servants to rich thieves. Now Would you look happy? like the field workers from usa-i think is what you mean when you say "american" ...

  I am thinking the white field workers I have seen don't look so happy either... unless they were posed. Working for the rich (with no vested rights in property) is humiliating and dehumanizing.
