Colorizing black and white photos
I was recently looking for a photograph to include in a 1977-1985 journal that I am typing-up. (Have you tried the voice-typing feature in Google Docs? For a non-typist like myself it is much faster but requires lots of proof-reading,)
I came across some photos that I thought might be interesting to my family. Some of the oldest ones were black and white, and I colorized them at MyHeritage.

The colors chosen by the colorizer are random. In the 1943 wedding photo, George (second from the left) was wearing a brown suit and Evans (the groom) was wearing a khaki army uniform. But the over-all results are are very good, if the contrast is good in the black and white original. (But not so good when the contrast is too high or too low.)
If you have a few special black and white photos that you would like to colorize, maybe try the MyHeritage site.
A web search found this additional information:
How many photos can you colorize on MyHeritage?
Users who have a Complete plan with MyHeritage can restore the colors in an unlimited number of photos. Other users can colorize up to 10 photos and restore the colors in up to 10 additional photos for free. To colorize or restore more photos, a subscription is needed.

The color restoration feature has also produced amazing results for me in many cases. If you have a lot of faded or discolored photos, a better option might be photo editing software that can do this without a limit to the number of photos.
I love old photos, and I am glad there are ways to bring them back to life. MyHeritage can even animate old portraits in a limited way.
