I'm on the other side of this - momma is sick and trying to make sure she doesn't die as she is always reminding me that such a thing is actually happening at least every four hours...
As I sit here in the front room of our quiet early morning house sipping my coffee, I chuckled out loud when I read that Charlie. I had just finished looking at the espn rankings thinking, "now whonhas to win & lose for Ohio St to sneak in...."
Lucky you've take one for the team, only men can take the pain and suffering of man 'flu and live to tell the story for his children to pass down through generations and tell of their ancestor's bravery in the face of such adversity...
My big mistake this sickness season for me was NOT taking a day off of work. I stupidly waited till it was Thanksgiving morning to seek out an early morning "urgent care" facility & pharmacy to get my prescriptions. Butt! After 4 days of meds I think I'm back in track!....
Earthquakes? I think some of it was removed to build mosques in Cairo and other nearby areas?
Indeed - earthquakes and expansion/contraction of the stone over thousands of years certainly played a role in the casing becoming dislodged - but the majority of the stone pilfering took place to build Medieval Cairo...
Some great images there...although I agree with my wife that the LC original is better.
Back to PS school
Well this is a "restored" TLC sold by HA, I assume that the colors have not been enhanced/saturated (is it even possible to saturate colors non-digitally?):

My parents were portrait photographers. One of the products they offered was a black and white 8x10 or other size that was hand colorized. The work was outstanding and was done with oil colors applied in a thin layer with q-tips. Some day I will scan one of these so you can see the level of detail that could be achieved. My grandfather was a true artist.

Some day soon I hope, would love to see it with accompanying schooling of the old photographic processes too.

Old school cool!
My Mom had all sorts of gizmos to "blow up" photos into posters she hung around the house.
FWIW, I found this one of my father that my sister had placed on facebook. Signature is sloppy on this one, but it does show what we did in terms of colorizing old black and white photos.
We would contract a lot of these out to a small group of artists and then finish up in house. The artists could do 4-6 a week. We would spend about an hour when they came back, cleaning edges and adding the sig.
That one of my father was taken around 1960-61 and I would have been 11 or 12. I am thinking that the sloppy sig is actually mine. They were starting to let me practice lettering on non-commercial stuff like this. They had me doing the simpler J as I wasn't ready to do the fancy one yet.
