Abstract

Russian photographer Prokudin-Gorskii was one of the pioneers of colour photography, creating projected colour composites through the acquisition of images using red, green, and blue colour filters. This paper explores the use of a multiresolution algorithm incorporating a structural similarity index to align each of the three-frame photographs. The algorithm is applied to medium and high resolution photographs in the Prokudin-Gorskii collection.
