The Three-D Filter

====================
M51
Image of M51 Rendered in '3D.'
This filter gives your images a '3-D' look. It emphasizes changes in brightness and makes it appear that you are viewing a raised surface with the light coming from the upper left. Try it on spiral galaxies to emphasize the arms.

You may have to adjust the BLACK and WHITE levels to get the best rendition of the details.
