The depth map comprises depth information for the color image and indicates the relative position of objects in the color image from a reference point of view. A collection of plural different color transforms is accessed. In addition, a depth value for a target pixel in the color image is determined by using the depth map. There is a selection of a color transform for the target pixel from the collection of plural different color transforms, based on the depth value determined for the target pixel. The selected color transform is applied to the color information of the target pixel by the destination device.
