Black-and-white photographs of famous landmarks under construction are transformed into stunning COLOUR images

A series of digitally altered photographs show some of the world's most iconic landmarks as they undergo construction or renovation around the world - in colour. The images, which sit side by side with the original monochrome photos, form part of a new book of 300 pictures called The Paper Time Machine, which is a collaboration between the Retronaut website founder Wolfgang Wild and Jordan Lloyd of Dynamichrome. Each image has been restored and rendered in colour by Jordan Lloyd after being been researched and colour checked for historical authenticity, with the aim of making the viewer feel like they are looking at a modern photograph.
