    Sketch - Black and White to Colour

    Hi, one method 1. overlay color image in a layer above the B&W. 2. convert that color layer blending mode to Color. 3. adjust the Blend if slightly, so that anything near white in the color layer drops out. leaving only the densities just down from the highest to show their color. regards, Sandy

    Would like advice please trying to salvage damaged B&W negatives
