<font color="orange">" "Rather than search endlessly for the unknown illumination of the surface, <br />the color calibration charts should be used to render the Martian scenery as it would appear <br />on Earth. Martian objects would be more easily understood if they were illuminated by <br />lighting conditions with which we are all familiar." <font color="white"><br /><br />I use Adobe Photoshop CS to produce the images I posted here. I try to adjust the images to Earth<br /> lighting in most my images, there is a lot of controversy on what true color is. I can even take a<br /> L2, L4, L6 filter image and refine it to get a close approximation to the actual by comparing <br />what the rover looked like on Earth and what it should look like on Mars similar to Earths if part <br />of it is in the image. I later use that technique to do the same filters without the rover in the image. <br />I get close to what the rover image would look like almost every time without a reference <br />point - rover in the image. Keep in mind that Mars gets much less solar radiation than Earth does. <br /><br />I do a lot more stuff to it, like I will darken the filtered image and add contrast most of the time <br />before I try to adjust the Hue and saturation point, some people call this cheating but you<br /> have to adjust the brightness of the image first most of the time because the filters are at there <br />maximum for each RGB setting. If you don’t then you get the dull looking image that JPL produces. <br />By darkening and adding contrast it brings out more of the shadows on Mars and sharpens the <br />image more. It also helps define the edges. I need to do this in different ways depending on the <br />filters used and the brightness of the image. Sometimes you have to brighten the image before <br />you add contrast because of the time of day the image is taken at.<br /><br />For comparison L4 filter is more like the color orange then the green filter normally use L5 filter. <br />In most cases i</font></font> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> Ron Bennett </div>
