Colourful History

Ever wonder what an old black and white photo would look like in colour? Resident Kelly Bonato enjoys colouring old photos and has done so with yesterday's Windback Wednesday photo of Woodley House. Kelly loves to colour old photos saying it really brings them to life.

"I have been editing and colourising what feels like hundreds of old photographs for my family, who migrated from Arbroath to Strathalbyn in the 1850s," says Kelly.

"I I have loved getting to know my ancestors through their life stories and images

"Like the council, I am very passionate about preserving history, and I absolutely adore old photos and the stories they tell."

Kelly, of Magill, has volunteered to colourise more of Council's Windback Wednesday photos.
