Abstract

Some implementations relate to determining whether glare is present in captured image(s) of an object (e.g., a photo) and/or to determining one or more attributes of any present glare. Some of those implementations further relate to adapting one or more parameters for a glare removal process based on whether the glare is determined to be present and/or based on one or more of the determined attributes of any glare determined to be present. Some additional and/or alternative implementations disclosed herein relate to correcting color of a flash image of an object (e.g., a photo). The flash image is based on one or more images captured by a camera of a client device with a flash component of the client device activated. In various implementations, correcting the color of the flash image is based on a determined color space of an ambient image of the object.
