Description
Colorized photo from 1915
Original title: View from Mt. Adams
Photographer: Detroit Publishing
Location: Above 395 Oregon St., Cincinnati, OH
This is Mount Adams, looking out at the city
This was originally one panel of a very complicated panorama, 4 frames just like this one. Its interesting, but a nightmare to color on its own.
There is also a postcard of this exact scene, and another from 1940. Which shed a little light on what colors to use... mostly brick. The house colors came from another view of the incline, but because its a different year, I didn't have to follow that a 100%.
The original year range for this photo was 1910-1920, though hard to see, on the right, those dots are horse carriages with cars.
I did my best to recreate the smog, normally there is haze in these old photos, but I'm certain that is all pollution.
