Anybody can use Photoshop, but doing a good job remains a craft. Professional colorist from Brazil, Marina Amaral, doesn't just click-and-drag. Driven by her burning obsession with history, Marina does extensive research to make her colorizations as realistic as possible, too.

Amaral has played with Photoshop since she was about ten. In 2015, she was scrolling a history forum on the internet and discovered colorized photos of World War I. Instantly inspired, Amaral started restoring and putting color into photos that were originally black and white. This allows people to experience the past through a whole new perspective. "Each photo is made to be realistic by recognizing the value behind each one of them, respecting and preserving their stories, paying attention to the finer details and maintaining their original essence."

"Every completed work has gone through long and in depth research, and is supported by the opinions of experts in each particular area if necessary, to faithfully reproduce the original colors and atmosphere," she adds. "My work ranges from simple portraits to complex and detailed images, taken from various historical periods covering a wide range of topics." Continue scrolling to enjoy Marina's wonderful work.

    A rather intriguing pair of photos given Monet's reputation for the study of light and its colors; the world then who couldn't see his art in person can only see black and white images, completely nullifying the genius of his artistry.

    She was an extraordinary woman - she escaped from Auschwitz in 1942, and while she was recaptured in 1943 and brought back, she survived. It's unclear what happened to her after the war. Let's just hope she didn't die at the hands of the Soviets like many others who were rescued from Nazi camps just to end up in Soviet ones...

    In case you're wondering, the inscription on the shell means "The snake is smoking", which was adopted as the motto of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force along with the moniker "Cobras Fumantes" (Smoking Snakes) after a popular saying that "...it's easier for a snake to smoke a pipe than the BEF to go to war". Well, the snakes were definitely smoking in Italy that year...

    Cunard's four screw arrangement was always better than White Star's choice of just three for the Olympic class, due to the fact a rudder is far less efficient if it moves in the wake of a propeller than if it moves in the relatively calm waters between the screws. I mean, sure, the Mauretania class had a host of other problems, like stability issues and vibration from it's turbines, but there you have it. Ironically, if the roles had been switched between the Titanic and Lusitania, each of those ships would have dealt better with the other's disaster - Titanic had transverse coal bunkers so a torpedo hit in the same place would not have set off a coal-dust explosion, and Lusitania's propulsion and steering arrangement would have made a glancing blow with the iceberg a lot less likely. It's debatable however if once hit in the same manner as Titanic, Lusitania would have fared better, because she had taller bulkheads but also longitudinal ones, meaning she listed severely as she sank.

    Her beauty is classic. She never looked dated in any of her films, from her hair to her makeup. In this 1939 photograph, she could walk right out of the studio into 2018 and right into Vogue magazine or a Hollywood romantic comedy without changing her look.

    This inventor of the machine gun possibly responsible for the most casualties in history, died at 94 years old back in 1994. But not without regret. He wrote the following to a priest at his church two years prior to his death: "I keep having the same unsolved question: if my rifle claimed people's lives, then can it be that I... a Christian and an Orthodox believer, was to blame for their deaths?" he wrote. "The longer I live, the more this question drills itself into my brain and the more I wonder why the Lord allowed man to have the devilish desires of envy, greed and aggression."

    Amusingly, these streets are not deserted - the photographic process of the time required long exposure times, so only people standing still long enough would appear. There is one such figure next to the far barricade and three more "ghosts" (people that stayed still for long enough to appear on film, but not enough to appear clearly), near the closer one.

    The Brewster Buffalo was one of the worst fighter planes of WW II and made easy prey for Japanese Zeroes. However, a number of Finns became aces flying it against the poorly trained Red Army Air Force.

    that man was mentally destroyed, when the UK and other countries sold Czech Republic to Russia (also they are sold Czech Republic to Hitler in Munchen 1938) just to save teir asses.. Prague (Czech main city) was one of the last places, where the war still going... Actualy, less than a few hours away, in city Pilsen was an USA army, but because they sold us tu Russia, the soldiers must stop there, so in Prague pleople dying for three more days. These Czech crew and others decided to fly from England to Prague to help free the city, but Churchill forced our President to called them back... All of them was haunted by Communist after they returned home.... Thanks for nothing UK ;)

    Not to be confused with the later Nazi Sturm Abwehr. These early storm troops were armed with some of the earliest submachine guns, grenades and the occasional flamethrower. They were shock troops.
