Claim One:
1. An apparatus comprising: a circuit configured to (i) receive a digital image from an electro-optical sensor, (ii) convert said digital image from a red-green-blue (RGB) representation to a luminance-and-chrominance representation, (iii) generate a reduced noise representation of said digital image by reducing noise in said luminance-and-chrominance representation and (iv) generate a color corrected representation of said digital image by first color correcting said reduced noise representation, wherein (A) said first color correcting maps said reduced noise representation from a first color space to a second color space in three dimensions and (B) said circuit is further configured to second color correct said digital image prior to said reduction of said noise in said luminance-and-chrominance representation, wherein said second color correct maps said digital image from a third color space to a fourth color space in three dimensions.
