Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention facilitate lighting and material editing. More particularly, some embodiments are directed to leveraging flash photography to capture two images in quick succession, one with the flash activated and one without. In embodiments, a scene may be decomposed into components corresponding to diffidently colored lights and into diffuse and specular components. This enables the color and intensity of each light in the scene, as well as the amount of specularity, to be edited by a user to change the appearance of the scene.
