I'm wondering what the colors represent in this blend mode (in Composite).
I ran an image through Color Balance and could see no appreciable difference when visually comparing the before and after, nor did the histogram seem to change.
However, when I ran the two images through Composite, with Absolute Difference, initially the result was black (visually), but when I expanded the result in Levels and Color, that result was visible, as if the original image had a bright red filter placed over it, which I have never seen before. When I have done similar operations before, the colors are mixed and not solid like this one, so just wondering what the colors actually represent.

Re: Absolute Difference
It means one image is slightly redder than the other.
If one image is brighter than the other you will see all the colors.
