Some 150 years since Abraham Lincoln outlawed slavery in the U.S., a collection of rare Civil War-era photographs have been brought to life through painstaking colorization. February 1 marks National Freedom Day, honoring the signing by President Lincoln of a resolution which became the 13th Amendment to the Constitution and abolished slavery. The photographs, seen here, depict the battle-weary men who fought in the bloody conflict between 1861 and 1865, either for the survival of the Union or a strike out into independence for the Confederates.

Frankly, they look dreadful. Worse than even Turner's worst colorization efforts. Who the hell did they hire to photoshop this, some middle-school kids? The color balances and the green-yellow tint couldn't be much more amateurish.
They work for cheap
