Reddit is all about communities, giving everyone the chance to share what they like with people that have the same passion. Colorized History is one of those communities that can change the way we look at old journalistic photos by adding colors to each black and white image.

Although the original black and white photos manage to transmit all sort of feelings to the viewer, I think these colorized versions are doing more than that. Seeing them in color brings a warm, nostalgic feeling and stirs up emotions when you think about the time period they were taken.

These photos were taken during harsh times in our history, but with the new color versions you can actually feel the drama or the joy of the characters involved. Furthermore, colors manage to add a new realistic dimension to all of them, taking you instantly to the place and time they were shot.

Check out the photo gallery below for more colorized black and white pictures.
