JPEG compression is lossy and throws       away information based on visibility to the human eye. The human eye has       far fewer short wavelength (roughly blue) cones than medium and long       wavelength cones (even more roughly green and red). The eye may have       evolved this way because neither predators nor prey are blue, also       resulting in an eye where blue is significantly defocused when red and       green are in focus, thus higher levels of compression can be used for       blue without being evident to the observer.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
