Hence some not necessary wanted changes in other areas of the tree.
So each pixel has been replaced with the median value of the pixels within the minimal radius = 1.
- On the left, below the original picture, big blobs appear reducing the White level to 162 to include darker pixels in the histogram. The size of branches increases.
- In the middle, White level is at the maximum of the interval of the histogram. The effect is a little bit fuzzy.
- On the right, increasing the Black level gives a snow effect.
