As the story mentions color film was just coming onto the scene during WWII. Most everything was in B&W. Well the British commissioned some photographers to shoot Kodak's Kodachrome which is positive slide film and not a negative film. If stored correctly the colors and saturation of the image won't degrade. I know I have many hundreds of Kodachrome slides from 1970-2009 and the 1970 slides look the same as the 2009 slides. Whether you are into photography or not, like me, these 14 shots shown here are just spectacular from my point of view. No photoshop just the colors and scene as seen by the camera. Exposures were very good especially since Kodachrome has a latitude of not much more than 1/2 stop either way. I just wish they noted what cameras were used since that era was pretty much Kodak for consumer and German for high end.
