Figure 22. Detection of image shading in Photoshop. Two cases are shown: an image with a low
level of shading (A, B) and an image with severe shading (C, D). The analysed images are
indicated with a red border. Images with shading have a wider peak of background grey values in
the histogram of image grey values (C) than images without shading (A; “Levels” tool in
Photoshop). Using the “Threshold” tool of Photoshop, as the slider for threshold grey values is
dragged from 255 (white) to 0 (black), the background is gradually revealed. Several successive
steps of this procedure are indicated with numbers 1-5 in B and D (decreasing threshold grey
values). See text for explanation.
