Colorized photos or footage from World War II have been around for some time, but these images truly show the world as people would have seen it at the time: "When you see them, they look almost like they were taken yesterday or reenacted," said Carter.

Color film was rare in World War II. The vast majority of the photos taken during the conflict were in black and white, and color photography as a whole was still a relatively new technique. It's this fact that makes the photos published by Britain's Imperial War Museums so mesmerizing. They are in their original state -- not retouched, not colorized: "You are seeing exactly what was taken. I know it's common these days to see retouched photographs and colorized black & white photos, but this is the real deal," said Ian Carter, author of a museum book in which they were published, during a phone interview. The images were commissioned by the British Ministry of Information, which got hold of a very small quantity of Kodachrome film. They then decided to use it experimentally, by giving it to some of their official photographers who took it to several locations and employed it very sparingly. Only about 3,000 images were taken in total, but not everything has survived: "About half of them went missing and we don't know where they went," said Carter. The surviving photos became part of the Museum's archives in 1949, and some of them are being published for the first time in 70 years. The photos were commissioned to publish in American magazines, which were printed in color, but not all of them would have been published during the war. It's not entirely clear how the film was allocated to photographers, but it's likely they were taken as "special" shots along with regular black and white cameras: "They had a very limited amount of film and had to be very careful, therefore they must have had the film in a separate camera and used it for a couple of photos while taking black and white shots," said Carter. Some amazing details that would be lost in greyscale suddenly emerge, such as the orange accents -- the color of the Dutch royal family -- in a scene of liberation in Eindhoven, Netherlands. Colorized photos or footage from World War II have been around for some time, but these images truly show the world as people would have seen it at the time: "When you see them, they look almost like they were taken yesterday or reenacted," said Carter. "It still seems a bit odd to see color photography from the Second World War. It still has the power to shock."

Who has had a #1 hit every decade?

Aretha Franklin officially has no. 1 hits in every decade since the '60s. Put some R-E-S-P-E-C-T on her name! Your browser can't play this video.

ew.com - Aretha Franklin has no. 1 hit songs in every decade since 1960s | EW.com

Aretha Franklin may have departed from this world in 2018, but her music will live forever. Proof of this lies in the Billboard Hot Gospel Songs chart dated July 4, which declares Franklin's "Never Gonna Break My Faith" featuring the Boys Choir of Harlem has taken the top spot. What this means is that the Grammy Award-winning song has secured Franklin's legacy with no. 1 hits in every decade since the 1960s. The song was released with a new music video on June 19 (above) with images showing protests from the Civil Rights era to today as masses hit the streets during a global pandemic in support of the Black Lives Matter movement in response to the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis. "My Lord, won’t you help them to understand when someone takes the life of an innocent man well they've never really won, cuz all they've really done is set the soul free - where it's supposed to be," she sings. Franklin will also be remembered with the release of two biopics about her life set to be released later this year. Jennifer Hudson will play the legendary Queen of Soul on the big screen in Respect, set for limited release on Dec. 25 before going wide on Jan. 15, 2021. The film was originally set to debut in August but was pushed due to the coronavirus pandemic. Cynthia Erivo will play Franklin in the third season of National Geographic's Genius franchise. The eight-part limited series release was also affected by the Hollywood shutdown in response to the pandemic. It's tentatively set to have a fall release.
