I see it as dark brownish yellow and blue
So people looking at this photograph actually can perceive this to be white and gold? thats utterly wild. And hard to believe.
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.
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).
Back when this went viral, I only saw white and gold. Then one moment it just sorta morphed into blue and black. Now I can't turn it back to white and gold for the love of me.
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’m right there with you. I don’t doubt they are correct, but from the start, my brain has solidly decided to perceive it as white and gold. Cannot see blue anywhere no matter how much I try and force my brain to look for it.
I see it as white and gold unless I squeeze my eyes almost shut and then it looks blue.
It had a lot to do with low quality displays at the time and not necessarily people seeing it incorrectly.
Right? Everyone has had eyes I guess.
I remember.
Ok is this post some sort of trick? I opened up lemmy, saw it white and gold for the first time in my life, then I took a shower, now it is blue and black once more.
For some reason, in the thumbnail, it's much easier to convince my brain that it's a white and gold dress in shadow. When I expand the image, it's pretty much impossible for me to see it as anything other than blue & black.
I can never see black and blue. I assume all those who claim to see black and blue are bots. fite me
thanks for making me feel old ...
everyone's wrong, gold and baby blue
This... Thank god i m not crazy
this! me too!
10 YEARS AGO?!
Oh yeah, the gold and white dress. I remember some people were acting crazy saying it is blue and white.
jokes aside the actual dress was blue and black
Black and blue. You blind.
Literally the entire planet remembers this. Even people who were not born yet.
When that was going around I saw it as black and blue, and my partner at the time saw it as white and gold. When it was revealed that it was actually the former, I made a comment something like "I guess the difference is I see things as they actually are", which got me a sharp look. :)
I only see white gold
