Revisiting Ben Lincoln's "The Mirror's Surface Breaks"

[Fandyus]

@Andrea B. I actually already tried that, the image that comes out when you drop the dark blue and dark red channels does not stack in such a way that there could be white anywhere in the image. What I did find out tho is that if you drop the pure red, pure green and pure blue channels, the image still stacks just fine and a full color range is achieved. I have already used that to get some fascinating results. Things such as RGBUV or IRRGB stacks, or full color extraction from two 720nm IR fluorescence images, induced with 395nm and 365nm respectively (by splitting each image into the blue channel and a green+red channel, I get four images and stack them with the aforementioned method, then highlight the subtle color differences).

The end result from this kind of stacking depends in some way on the differences in tonality (blacks, whites, greys) between the images used in the stack, doesn't it?. I'm not quite sure how to explain what I mean.
