Systems and techniques for blending image data such that noise, texture and/or high-frequency data may be better preserved in a resulting blended image. In general, in one implementation, the techniques include blending a first image and a second image to form a blended image including a blended image component formed by a non-affine interpolation of components from the first and second images. The techniques also include blending a first image component corresponding to a first image region with a second image component corresponding to a second image region to produce a first blended component, blending a third image component corresponding to the first image region with a fourth image component corresponding to the second image region using blend coefficients, which sum to a value other than one, to produce a second blended component, and merging the first blended component with the second blended component to produce a blended image region.
