Hi,
I am assuming you want to get the average of color of each block for each component separately. In your function "myfun" by using "mean2()" you get the mean of the entire block as a single value which is then used for R,G and B values.
One way to get the mosaic in color would be to calculate the average for each color of the block separately and then combine them using the "cat" function. Here is an example :
smashpic = imread('peppers.png');
myfun = @(block_struct) cat(3,mean2(block_struct.data(:,:,1))*ones(block_struct.blockSize,class(block_struct.data))...
,mean2(block_struct.data(:,:,2))*ones(block_struct.blockSize,class(block_struct.data))...
,mean2(block_struct.data(:,:,3))*ones(block_struct.blockSize,class(block_struct.data)));
mosaic = blockproc(smashpic,[8 8],myfun);
imshow(mosaic);
Hope this helps
