Abstract
The relation between perceptual image quality and natural
ness was investigated by varying the colorfulness of natural
images at various lightness levels. A systematic difference
was found between quality and naturalness judgments. This
difference, reflecting the subjects’ preference for more
colorful but, at the same time, somewhat unnatural images,
was most noticable at the original lightness level and
diminished with decreasing lightness, in particular at the
lowest lightness level investigated.
