ABSTRACT:
An image capturing apparatus (10) for providing an adjusted image (214) of a scene (12) includes an apparatus frame (222), a flash system (230), a capturing system (226), and a control system (232). The flash system (230) generates a flash of light (248) to illuminate the scene (12). The capturing system (226) captures an original image (368) when the scene (12) is illuminated and a non-flash image (366) when the scene (12) is not illuminated. The original image (368) has an original color composition (368A) and the non-flash image (366) has a non-flash color composition (366A) that is different than the original color composition (368A). The control system (232) evaluates the non-flash image (366) and the original image (368). In one embodiment, the control system (232) provides the adjusted image (214) that is based on the non-flash image (366) and the original image (368). A selected color composition (470) can be input into the control system (232) to adjust the color composition of the adjusted image (214).
