man... kids... why not read the article?

"The process used involved a camera that would take a set of three photographs. These pictures would be monochrome but each picture would be taken using a filter of a different color. When all three monochrome pictures were projected (using light which had to be specifically colored) then the original color scene could be reconstructed. However, this took some time to take - hardly the point and click we are used to a century on - and so occasionally in Prokudin-Gorsky's work you can see stray movements, such as the child in the bottom left of the previous picture."

I think we got that part, but it just comes down to semantics if you want to claim that that color pics are BW based on their source format.

That's like saying my 256 color GIF is really a 16.7k color image because the source was a JPEG. Besides, he actually did the work back then to convert them to color, not just took the pics in BW and then had them reconstructed a century later with modern techniques.
