Australian photographer and adventurer Frank Hurley was a master of light and shadow. He participated in a number of expeditions to Antarctica and served as an official photographer with Australian forces during both world wars.

 

I chose this photo to test colourising an image with a clear light source (the fire) which really tested my skills. Shiny objects like the tin helmets pick up the light and some colours appear completely different to a photo taken in daylight,

 

High quality glossy print. Frame not included. Depending on size chosen, some parts of image shown may be cropped.
