Here is a nice example of a photo I added color too! I didn't change much about his jacket, I thought it looked nice that color. Photos like this professional one of my great uncle (I'm fairly sure this was taken in the 1950's, there was no date on the back though) are some of the easiest for me to add color to. They have the simple background, and excellent lighting. Sometimes when the contrast (how dark the darks are and how light the lights are) in the photograph isn't very good, it makes it very difficult to add color.
For example, a photo with very low contrast would be something like (this)
While a photo with very high contrast would be something like (this).
So anything somewhere around the middle is very easy to add color to, like this photo of my great uncle Alexander (Although his tie was a pain in the butt)!
