<p>[QUOTE="Hannahcoab, post: 173248, member: 62580"]I am adding captions to scanned family photographs and have reached an awkward question about hair color. In one photograph a relative appears auburn, while another print from the same year looks almost brown. We have no reliable record of a color change, and memories of the period disagree. For vocabulary rather than identification, I have been looking at <a href="https://haircolorpalette.top" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://haircolorpalette.top" rel="nofollow">hair color analysis</a> but I do not want a modern label to turn into an unsupported claim about someone. I could state how the hair appears in the print and leave the original shade undecided. I would retain the original scan alongside edited versions and explain which image the caption describes. The captions will be shared with younger relatives who never met these people, which makes careful wording more useful than a confident guess. How would you phrase that distinction in an album caption without filling every page with technical notes?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
