I currently have a RGB geotiff composite image that has a Byte datatype.  I 
also have individual band images for R, G, Redge, and NIR that are UInt16 
datatypes.  Since I'm missing the Blue band from the individual bands, I was 
attempting to extract the blue band from the RGB composite image, scale it up 
to the UInt16 datatype, and build a composite VRT with R, G, B, NIR, RE bands 
included in it.  I was then attempting to extract the RGB bands from the 
multispec VRT in order to see if the process was working as intended, but I'm 
getting an extremely blue image.

Can anyone shed some light as to what I may be doing wrong here?

I started by building a VRT for each band:
gdal_translate source_RGB.tif b.vrt -ot UInt16 -of VRT -b 3 -scale 0 255 0 65535
gdalbuildvrt -b 1 r.vrt source_R.tif
gdalbuildvrt -b 1 g.vrt source_G.tif
gdalbuildvrt -b 1 nir.vrt source_NIR.tif
gdalbuildvrt -b 1 re.vrt source_RE.tif

I then merged the VRTs:
gdalbuildvrt -separate multispec.vrt r.vrt g.vrt b.vrt nir.vrt re.vrt

I now have a multispec.vrt with the R, G, B, NIR, and RE bands, all with a 
UInt16 datatype.

Now, I attempted to rebuild a RGB GeoTiff from the composite VRT with something 
like:
gdal_translate -ot Byte -of GTiff -b 1 -b 2 -b 3 -scale 0 65535 0 255 -co 
PHOTOMETRIC=RGB multispec.vrt multispec.tif

Viewing the result in QGIS appears overly blue.  What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks,
Nathan
