Found this on another message board, and thought my fellow Freepers would enjoy the history.
From the site: "The color photo was invented in 1903 by the Lumiere brothers, and the French army was the only one taking color photos during the course of the war."

If you are looking for color photos of World War 1, I created a site which has them, slthough there are probably other sites as well.

Should you want to click on an ad or two to help pay for bandwidth, I would appreciate it.

Glad you like it, I've added more images today. Currently there are over 300 images up, with more to come.
