### 5.3. Colorize

The Colorize tool renders the active layer or selection into a greyscale image seen through a colored glass. You can use it to give a “ Sepia” effect to your image. See A color space is a set of colors which can be displayed or recognized by an input or output device (such as a scanner, monitor, printer, etc.). The colors of a color space are specified as values in a color space system, which is a coordinate system in which the individual colors are described by coordinate values on various axes. Because of the structure of the human eye, there are three axes in color spaces which are intended for human observers. The practical application of that is that colors are specified with three components (with a few exceptions). There are about 30 to 40 color space systems in use. Some important examples are: for Hue, Saturation, Luminosity.
