Dress color, what did you see?

[oldred]

I am going to assume that by now most have seen that dress color argument on the news, the one where some folks see one color while others see another. I and my wife both see blue/black while our daughter sees white/gold so I decided just for fun to see if this is real or just people joking with each other. I sent copies (sure was a boring weekend with all this snow!) of it to several people who hadn't yet heard about this and sure enough it's true, some saw blue/black and a couple of them saw white/gold! These folks were unaware of the story and I simply asked them to look at this picture and tell me what color it is, it was about a 50-50 split.

Just found this quite interesting and like I said it was boring weekend stuck back here on the ridge in all this snow.

GUYS

Please keep in mind that many males are partially or completely color blind or so I was told many years ago.

For some reason women do not suffer this problem.

Besides NEVER ARGUE WITH A WOMAN.

[M-Tecs]

Gold and pale blue

I prefer to imagine that the dress is not there...

[WILCO]

Haha!

[reloader28]

It was without a doubt blue/black.
Anyone who says otherwise is just doing it to argue.

[groovy mike]

read it had more to do with the background behind what you were looking at than what was in your head....

[bubba.50]

no matter what color ya see, that's one butt-ugly dress so I don't see why anyone would even care what color it is.

Who with any common sense cares!
1Shirt!

[lancem]

I must live too far out in the boonies as I have no clue what you are talking about. For a second I thought gee I need to get out more, then I realized no I don't...

[Rick Hodges]

Blue and bronze...lol....yep that is the way i saw it.

[therealhitman]

I had no idea WTH you guys were talking about. Now I'm just a little freaked out as this dress has changed colors back and forth on me for 10 minutes now! Glance away it's blue, glance back it's white. Is it a GIF masquerading as a jpeg in a hoax? What is up?

No, man. It's not a social media/celebrity stupidity thing. They just have to attach those names to every damn story anymore. I read "Kardashian" and almost stopped reading. But then it happened. Look 1shirt...what colors?

Where's WILCO? Somebody start a poll.

it's white and gold/brass whatever.
the shadows make it look like a blue tint.
if you use two contrasting tinted shades of the same color, the colors will appear as one base color but tinted differently depending on the light source.
the two tints will appear as one color to your eye, so you blend them to make one color.

I done this same thing in a room in my house some years ago using 2 different tinted shades of white, yellow and blue.
the rooms brightness and mood would change throughout the day as the sun passed over head.
some of the white colors would tint blue and the lighter blue would shade over appearing brighter or darker depending on where the sun was, and the yellow would go from a light reflective happy color in the morning to a matte type almost gold/orange like the sunset in the evening.
it freaked people out if they took an afternoon nap in there, they thought they were in a different room when they woke up.
