A colorization project volunteer needed

[JohnDLittlefield]

Hi All,
Just curious to see if anyone would be willing to give a shot at colorizing the attached image (or I can send a higher res image if needed). I am working very hard on a book (and dissertation) about this vessel and a colorized photo could help tremendously with interpreting the construction.
If the volunteer would agree to allow me to use the photo, assuming it has a place in the volume, credit for the work would certainly be appropriately given, otherwise the colorized photo will just be used for interpretation. Thank you in advance to any volunteers that are willing to play around with the photo.

Best regards,
John

Hi John - is this the C.S.S. David by chance?

@JohnDLittlefield - Just an FYI. The use of the "Graphic" flag in this forum is used when the image is of something graphic (such as images of the dead) in nature that some members may wish to not view. In themselves ANY photograph is graphic, but only certain ones need the "Graphic" flag used when posting a new thread.

Thanks for the heads up. I fixed it. It's my first post in this forum and I made the poor assumption that it simply meant there was an attached image. Newbies... what can you do with them?

It is! I have been researching this vessel for quite some time and I believe a colorized version of the photo may help with interpretation of the construction. Hopefully some one will take this on. Could be very illuminating.

No worries. Catches us all the first time out. Not sure if I will be able to get to your image or not. Do you have a link to the original source?

Yes, I do. Any help you are willing to give would be greatly appreciated.
