This picture made me feel incredibly weird. I see blue and brownish - we can call it gold. Like, I see the same colors you’ll see if you do an average color extraction over the image using an image processor. There’s no color illusion for me at all.
The whole world went mad in two camps and I’m in neither.
You’re in the blue and black camp. I get what you mean, it’s sort of a yellowish brown, but that’s why the illusion is there in the first place. Some people’s brains adjust it to a more yellow color instead of more of a black/dark brown.
I appreciate your answer. But aren’t you just in my camp, maybe? If some people in the blue/black camp see a yellowish brown, why do they call it black? And why do they insist it’s the only way the image could be interpreted?
What struck me about the whole thing was how people seemingly could not fathom how the colors could be seen as anything other than what they personally saw/interpreted. Were some of them exaggerating, do you think?
