Who remembers this?

Does not help me to see it the other way.
Thanks for confirming. My eyes adjusted when I did so and then as I scrolled back up even the on where they used the color pallet had changed to my vision. Next day saw it as white, and did the same thing again. The brain is weird.

It's white/gold if you recognize that it's lit from behind. So the dress appearing darker is due to there being much less light on it than the stuff behind it.
I can't see it as blue/black because I can't make my brain ignore the fact that it's backlit. But if your brain never recognizes that, then I suppose it would look blue.
The actual dress is blue and black and even when heavily backlit it just appears to be a lighter shade of blue, but not even close to white.

You want wild? I see it white and gold in the PC, and blue and black(ish) on the phone.
wrote last edited by [email protected]It‘s the opposite with me, on my PC I saw it as black/blue, right now on Lemmy on my phone it can‘t be anything but gold/white. It must be the displays causing this ambiguity, no way human perception varies this much between a large set of people.

So people looking at this photograph actually can perceive this to be white and gold? thats utterly wild. And hard to believe.
I see it as white and gold unless I squeeze my eyes almost shut and then it looks blue.

It's very noisy. In the sense of there being a lot of pixels that would make up either colors. Your eyes and brain try to make sense of the noise and "decide" what color it is. The strongest correlation that seems to exist is the time people get up in the morning. Early risers seem to see white more often, night owls have a tendency for blue. It might be caused by the amount of daylight vs. artificial light that people see throughout their waking hours.

No, but it doesn't mean the other answer is invalid too. If there is no reference in the picture to tell what kind of light condition it was shot at, both answers could be possible.
wrote last edited by [email protected]So if we're just going by what's possible then the wall could be yellow and have a blue light, or it could be white with one yellow and one blue light.

What science lol.
The pixels are light blue and gold.
The dress itself is dark blue and black.
But the pixels side with the white and gold team. They are seeing the pixels as they appear. If you see blue and black your subconscious is over-riding the objective reality of the pixels (and guessing correctly what colours the original dress is).

I saw this same post yesterday and the dress was blue and black. Later that day it was gold and white. Today it is gold and white still.
Same phone. Same location in my house. Different times of day though. It kind of fucked with my head though because when the dress meme was going around I only saw it one color (though I don't remember which it was).

Where was the lady supposed to be again?
This concludes your short term memory exam.

I still only see white/gold even though the actual dress was black/blue

I've been trying for the past minute and cannot see anything other than white and gold
️Change your screen settings to be accurate instead of vivid it should show the correct colors. If you have a tn or really low quality v.A panel that might cause it.
Be the cause -
I've always really liked this explanation image you can find on Wikipedia page for it. Essentially, people who see white and gold are mistaking the lighting to be cold and blue-tinted, rather than warm and yellow-tinted.
The portions inside the boxes are the exact same colors, you can easily check this with a color picker.
What the actual fuck? When this first came around, my eyes saw white and gold, in this post it looks like overexposed brown and blue, and looking at this graphic is fucking with my head! Brains are wee photo editors, aren't they?

That isn’t what’s happening it’s a low res overexposed photo that lacks visual cues not real life.
It doesn't lack visual cues. I could tell it's overexposed and adjust for the lighting. You just can't see the cues, and that's the difference.

No, it does. That’s the point lol. Go read the Wikipedia thicko

I can see them with my own eyes right now. And the dress is black and blue, so I'm right. You just can't see them, but don't mistake your eyesight problems for objective truth.
