Claim One:
1. A system for manipulating captured light field image data, comprising: a processor; a display connected to the processor and configured to display images; a user input device connected to the processor and configured to generate user input data in response to user input; and memory connected to the processor and containing an image manipulation application, a synthesized image, and associated depth information; and wherein the image manipulation application directs the processor to: display the synthesized image using the display; receive user input data from the user input device identifying at least one pixel identifying a region within the synthesized image; identify an object within the synthesized image based upon color and intensity values, and the associated depth information for the identified at least one pixel, where at least one boundary of the object is determined by separately clustering each given pixel based upon depth, color, and intensity; receive user input data identifying at least one image processing operation; and perform the image processing operation on the identified object within the synthesized image.
