Abstract
In this work, we present a simple but a different approach to correct colors of digital photographs. Pictures taken on digital cameras do not portray the actual colors of the photo that a naked eye can see. This is because of the surroundings and the lighting conditions a photo is captured in. The problem of colors is solved here using an external component called a color checker. The algorithm takes 2 inputs and gives a color corrected output which helps photographers and a few other areas of work where pictures play an important role. The method we propose has been tuned and tested on various image data.The paper deals with image processing and machine learning for color calibration and to detect the colorchecker on the target image and uses Python programming language to get the output.
