Abstract

There is a problem with imaging and image processing. It is addictive. A nice picture almost immediately rewards the effort taken, by reminding you of the beauty the universe has to offer and the fun you can have seeing it — I have one above my desk at work. And the only thing better than a good image is a good color image. Be warned, once you start taking and processing color images you may not want to go back to monochrome again.
