Color-Space Selective Darkness and Lightness Adjustment

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for color-space selective darkness and lightness improvements. In one aspect, a method accessing multiple pixels that represent a digital image in an RGB color space. The accessed pixels are processed based on a darkness of the digital image resulting in a first set of processed pixels, and separately based on a lightness of the digital image resulting in a second set of processed pixels. Both sets of processed pixels are combined to generate a processed output image.
