Then, an overlay color line (404) linearly extending from the background color coordinate (202) to the first point (408) is calculated.Furthermore, a second point (414) on the overlay color line (404) is determined, where the ratio of the difference between the predetermined maximum light intensity value and the light intensity value to the difference between the light intensity value and the predetermined minimum light intensity value corresponds to the ratio of the length (420) of the overlay color line (404) from the second point (414) to the first point (408) to the length (422) of the overlay color line (404) from the background color coordinates (202) to the second point (414). The color coordinates (206) of the second point (414) within the uniform color space (400) are output as the output color of the output pixel (150c).
