you can use default arguments to explicitly pass objects from
your current local namespace to the lambda's namespace:

    self.out = self.image.point(lambda i, self=self: min(i, self.low))

or:

    self.out = self.image.point(lambda i, low=self.low: min(i, low))

see also: http://www.python.org/doc/FAQ.html#4.5

or you can forget about lambdas and build the table "by hand":

    lut = range(0, low) + [low] * (256 - low)
    self.out = self.image.point(lut)

(or use a for loop)
