Claim One:
1. A method comprising: separating an image, captured with an image sensor with a multi-exposure pixel pattern for one or more color channels with a plurality of groups of pixels of said image sensor having different exposure times, for each color of said one or more color channels and for each exposure time of said different exposure times, into sub-images comprising pixels with exposure values only for one exposure time of said different exposure times and pixels with missing exposure values for exposure times different from said one exposure time; interpolating exposure values for said pixels with missing exposure values in each sub-image of said sub-images using a predetermined algorithm for providing interpolated images of said sub-images; and combining said interpolated images for each of said one or more color channels according to a predetermined criterion to provide an enhanced image of said image for each of said one or more color channels for enhancing a dynamic range of said image.
