Hi all. I decided to take the luminance data that I recently collected and put a little color with it. The color is from an older image, taken a couple of years ago. Here is the result.

Tyler,
Color really does ad another dimension to this object and enhances a lot of stuff not readily apparent in B&W.

Nice job with the data and registration across the field. Was the color from a different instrument then the luminance?
