Before the advent of color negatives, photographers added color to their black and white photographs by painting directly on them. This photo taken by jonkersey is a fine example of what this meticulous process can do to enliven a monochromatic image.

He took this photograph in 1993 using a Holga 120N loaded with a Kodak Tri-X film. You can see more of jonkersey’s hand-painted images on his LomoHome.

Congratulations to jonkersy for winning Photo of the Day!
