Still surprised anyone can see this as white (even on the dress) but I guess same goes to the other side with black/gold (though most of the dress is really dark brown which to me looks way closer to black than any of the shades of blue look white). Again, computer colors is not the point of this thread anyway. | ||

Dress is black and blue. And of course I didn't mean "blue turns white" literally. I meant it as "seeing it white even though it's actually blue". I dont see that sun hits dress. dress is at shadow unlike the background. Edit: Do you mean sun hits dress from behind? I was thinking about sun forward left angle. I highly doubt that sun hits from behind, dress should have more brightness in that case I think. | ||

I'm not sure if you're trying to troll me or you just have really bad memory, but I don't think there's anything else to add to your correction. If you're honestly still confused about the colors, SKC lays it out really nicely a few posts above mine. Maybe that'll help you more. This is a forum with recorded posts. I've clarified twice that I am refering to the image, yet you insist I am talkign about the dress. You are so dearly confused or purposely obstinate. Either way, there really isn't a point to talk with someone who despite recorded posts insists that one party was talking about something they did not, in order to "prove" themselves right. | ||

Still surprised anyone can see this as white (even on the dress) Because there's a huge amount of red and green in the color. It's not flat white (100/100/100) but it's much closer to flat white than it is to pure blue (0/0/100). It's clearly blue tinted, but white is the dominant color (to what my eyes originally saw, and via digital examination of the pic) On March 05 2015 03:08 PoP wrote: Someone on YouTube posted two (bad) photoshops of the dress picture under clearly different lighting conditions: http://i.imgur.com/pIQIm9I.jpg http://i.imgur.com/xA9DV3x.jpg Comparison: http://i.imgur.com/VLb9XQO.jpg Exactly the same colors used on both.

I was thinking about sun forward left angle. I highly doubt that sun hits from behind, dress should have more brightness in that case I think. I don't know if that's the same sun as the light we can see on the background, but it's light coming from somewhere on the front and/or side. If you look at the dark part on top of the dress, it's definitely hit by light on the rightmost part of that. Actually a whole "column" of light can be perceived towards the middle (slightly towards the left) of the whole dress. | ||

It's clearly blue tinted, but white is the dominant color (to what my eyes originally saw, and via digital examination of the pic) Well I'm not a color expert but every article/document/video I've seen using photoshop or similar tools (including tweets from the Adobe company itself during the big buzz) have mentioned the color is absolutely blue (other being (dark) brown), no question about it. I would also gladly eat a hat if anyone with normal eyes would ever think "white" looking at the rectangles I posted earlier. Maybe grey/blue, skyblue (for the first one) or something, but that's it. But this is a totally different "debate" from the actual topic of this thread, and a much less fascinating one. | ||

it was 131, 140, 195. White would have been 131, 131, 131 - but there was a very very slight bias towards green, and a more heavy bias towards blue. Blue would have been 0, 0, 195. The 131 and 140 are extremely significant. It doesn't look solid white when placed against a light background, but it's miles away from blue (especially when placed on backgrounds of every color) | ||

blue + red = violet. violet - blue =red. Gets it?! blue - blue = white gold - blue = (light) gold indoor has basically no blue. thats why the color of bulb looks very yellowish (compared to outdoor light). blue - yellow = (dark) blue gold - yellow = black Your brain already do this in subconscious mind. | ||

The color of the moon is actually the color of asphalt. Although when we look up at night it is white most of the time. And then because of the refraction near the horizon, it's sometimes yellow, orange, etc. And during a lunar eclipse (a shadow on it) it is also red, orange, pinkish for the same reasons. All of these things are similar to what happens in the lighting of the picture and the refraction of the lens of the camera afaik. The main source of the debate is how the picture subtly gives us the option of choosing whether the dress is under tons of light, or is in a shaded place via top right and forgeground. So people's brains that see the opposites are filling in the missing data from either of those options. It's not really about some people being better or worse, it's probably more just a random thing. So the real debate that people don't understand is where this person actually is in relation to the background. The people seeing the darker colors are assuming that the person is directly in the lighting, while the people seeing the lighter colors are assuming the person is standing under an umbrella or something outside. Since we know the colors of the dress are actually blue and black (although we don't actually know how faded/old the dress is IRL) we can assume that the person is actually not standing under an umbrella, and that is the optical illusion. | ||

And that's how this optical illusion tricks the brain into thinking the colors are different than they actually are. | ||
