So I've implemented the retinex algorithm from GIMP in java. (Lots of reasons but mainly flexibility, threading and memory usage).
Here's an example of the current differences:

GIMP is the top, mine is the bottom. Given that in large part this is a Gaussian filter at first, I've got to assert that mine is probably the correct one. However, the sad part is I am really interesting in implementing this bugged behavior as well.
I'm about to have to start building gimps that will give me more insight, which I don't honestly want to do. If anybody has any clue how this might be happening I'd love the help. I've got a minimal C background so any comments from someone knowledgeable there would be especially helpful.

My implementation is here:

which corresponds with this gimp file:
