Strange dress

[mabar]

I see all three.

Also, people see colors differently.

Even the same person can see colors differently, which depends on the environment, light . . .

and color cultural bias, also the "introduction" to distinguish colors is set to see variations from " dark+blue colors, another ones see gold+white colors", and it would depend if you see just the image in the whole monitor, whatever dispositive, or focusing in the dress and there are other colors around from the desktop, at first, I agreed it was gold/white, because that was my first impression, considering that it looked "dark" because the photo was taken against light. But focusing in its hues, khaki color and pale baby color.

I googled "white gold blue black dress" on Google Images and some of the pictures show a white gold, others a blue black dress. So there are different images circulating, which might explain why some of you saw a white gold dress yesterday and a blue one today. If you haven't looked at the exactly SAME image, that is.

Strange that different people see the dress differently at the same time, though, but as was being said, people see colors differently.

I see it more as a test - and cannot understand why anyone would break up a friendship over that issue (which apparently happened), a test like: How much does it take to divide people (and conquer). Obviously not much :/

M.T.

White and Gold for me. The lighting gives the illusion of white being blue and gold being brown or darker.
Frankly I have trouble seeing what the fuss is about.

breaking up friendships over this? LOL it tells a lot about what people consider to be friendship nowadays.

Yep, lavender and gold for me.

I saw blue and goldy-brown. Doesn't change.

me too..

Yup, same here. I'll come back to it again a bit later and report back if I perceive it differently, but so far it's blue and brown for me.

I initially saw white/gold. Then I still see white/gold but

Aquamarine, and a light chocolate brown?...

Experts say - that we are all right. Doctor Paul Knox from the University of Liverpool argues that color is not something that really exists. There are, he says, different wavelengths of light that we see, but the color is something that we invent in our heads.

'Our eye meets the light of different wavelengths, which then triggers several different paths which are processed and different wavelengths. This is what the brain interprets as a color ', he explained.

But the situation is complicated by the example of the device where we look at the photo, the lighting under which we see and what is happening in our head, and our expectations.
I see a white and golden brown

Nothing but a dark blue and black for me.

Hello s_kur.
A question, you're from Argentina? because yesterday I opened my facebook and all I saw were post on the same topic!
I see no television, the truth I did not understand the "hysteria" about the color of a dress


Hola s-kur.
una pregunta, usted es de Argentina? porque ayer abrí mi facebook y todo lo que vi fueron post sobre el mismo tema!
No veo la televisión, la verdad que no entendía la "histeria" por el color de un vestido

Hello Dave_posse!

[Dave_P]

oh, sorry s-kur. I was really surprised by the magnitude of something as simple. (at least I saw it that way), I read some comments from facebook and (apparently) was to identify some kind of "Daltonism" (?) at least here in Argentina was given very important (as always the most mundane things appear in all the media of the country).



oh, lo siento s-kur. Me quedé muy sorprendido por la magnitud de algo tan simple. (por lo menos yo lo vi de esa manera), he leído algunos comentarios de facebook y (aparentemente) era identificar algún tipo de "daltonismo" (?) al menos aquí en Argentina se le dio gran importancia (como siempre las cosas más mundanas aparecen en todos los medios de comunicación del país).

This puppy is scared and feels ill. The picture made my stomach hurt. The fuss for me is that looking at the same photo my husband saw a different color than I saw without knowing the context of the story.
