I can think of some lighting tricks that could make light colors look darker, but I can't for the life of my figure how that supposedly made a black/navy blue dress look white and gold. Supposedly this dress comes in 3-4 different colors, but all w/ black lace. On other sites, in other pictures, this is obvious, but this picture is obviously the brain child and play thing of the devil created to divide humanity.
Its been proven the actual dress is black and blue and if you see it as that then your retinas are better.
"Your eyes have retinas, the things that let you interpret color. There's rods, round things, and cones that stick out, which is what gives your eye a textured appearance in the colored part. The "cones" see color. The "rods" see shade, like black, white and grey. Cones only work when enough light passes through. So while I see the fabric as white, someone else may see it as blue because my cones aren't responding to the dim lighting. My rods see it as a shade (white).
There's three cones: small, medium and large. They are blue sensitive, green sensitive, and red sensitive.
As for the black bit (which I see as gold), it's called additive mixing. Blue, green and red are the main colors for additive mixing. This is where it gets really tricky. Subtractive mixing, such as with paint, means the more colors you add the murkier it gets until its black. ADDITIVE mixing, when you add the three colors the eyes see best, red, green and blue, (not to be confused with primary colors red, blue and yellow) it makes pure white.
—Blue and Black: In conclusion, your retina's cones are more high functioning, and this results in your eyes doing subtractive mixing.
—White and Gold: our eyes don't work well in dim light so our retinas rods see white, and this makes them less light sensitive, causing additive mixing, (that of green and red), to make gold."
I see blue and black or the trim could be a dark brown. But the dress I see is not gold to my eyes just blue. It's been all over Twitter and Facebook. Some people see blue and black and others see gold and white.
I scrolled up and down on it and it's still blue and black. It's ugly anyway, we need to destroy it.
It was white and gold the first time I clicked. Then, after reading some responses, I clicked again and it was blue and brown.
I guess some combo of cookies and server settings controls this. Fascinating. But almost certainly has an explanation that will have us smacking our foreheads!
