Description:

this class represents 48 bit images as possibly provided by png 3x16bit rgb images.
Such images are normally not used in real world applications, as humans cannot differentiate 
more than roughly 200 distinct color tone values. However, in image processing (false-color) applications,
such a fine grain image makes sense and is sometimes used.

Class protocol:

 defaultPhotometric

return the default photometric pixel interpretation

 imageDepth

return the depth of images represented by instances of
this class - here we return 48

Instance protocol:

 pixelAtX: x y: y

retrieve a pixel at x/y; return a pixelValue.
Pixels start at x=0 , y=0 for upper left pixel, end at
x = width-1, y=height-1 for lower right pixel

 pixelAtX: x y: y put: aPixelValue

set the pixel at x/y to aPixelValue.
Pixels start at x=0 , y=0 for upper left pixel, end at
x = width-1, y=height-1 for lower right pixel

 initialize

 bitsPerPixel

return the number of bits per pixel

 bitsPerRow

return the number of bits in one scanline of the image

 bytesPerRow

return the number of bytes in one scanline of the image
