the two colors, from photoshop. dunno how you can say that's not gold

This is exactly what I see

 

[Horse Detective]

I've had three people look at this, and we all say blue and black, zero ambiguity. I'm convinced that the "white and gold"ers are all elaborate trolls trying to fuck with us.

It is white and gold on my phone.

 

[RockTurtle]

I saw white and Gold at first,

then i read the description, rubbed my eyes, turned off accent light...

and now its gray-blue and dark gold.

WHAT IS THIS SORCERY!?

 

[Chuck]

Blue and black.

skyguy, you're blind o_o

 

[Annubis]

that's like, the wrong highlight color.

Of course... if I put the same color, you guys wouldn't see it lol

 

[Rhomega Beta]

People say gold, but it looks like a dirty brown to me. The other color is white.

I can't tell who's serious ;(

 

[diaspora]

yep

 

[Waikis]

Black? Wtf?
I see blue and gold

 

[23qwerty]

I honestly can't see how people see this as BLACK!? The blue kinda makes sense, because the temperature of the lighting is pretty cool. I just interpret it as white though.

The gold is obvious, to me.

I think a big part of the debate is whether people are saying what they see, or what they think it actually is...
You can definitely see gold, but its just from the really bad lighting. So some people take that into account, some don't.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Blue and brownish gold.

 

[You Are Viewtiful]

I see white and gold, but I can see the "blue" but it looks like it's because of the lighting. Black? no way.

 

[WillyFive]

Very light blue and gold.

 

[SwiftDeath]

—Blue and Black: In conclusion, your retina’s cones are more high functioning, and this results in your eyes doing subtractive mixing.

**** UPDATE to prove this theory I turned my phone brightness from the lowest to highest and saw it switching from white and gold (at the lowest) to light blue and darker gold (at the highest) meaning people that see blue and black are more sensitive to light (better eyesight and not looking at the sun like your moms told you)

Jokes on you random person on the internet. I see Black and Blue but have been staring at the sun since I was a child.

 

[cajunator]

I see blue and black.
blue is my favorite color though.

 

[Baka Sempai]

Color blind here .....

What colors ??

 

[genjiZERO]

bonkers that it's actually blue and black.

From my phone it looks like a really pale Prussian blue (yes that specific!). Sort of like the color of snow when the sun goes down.

 

[Epsilon-delta]

It's clear as day from my screen it's white and gold.

 

[kudoboi]

its blue and black btw, just a really overexposed photo

But that's white and gold.

 

[DeadlyParasite]

Blue and Gold for me.

 

[Nanashrew]

It's the lighting in the picture. If I turn off f.lux I can see a tint of blue in the dress but gold is still present. If I turn f.lux back on I just see white and gold. There was a similar thing with the Zelda demo footage where things had a blueish tint because of the open window next to them, but by making the image warmer it corrected the colors more accurately representing the E3 trailer.

 

[Damaniel]

It is white and gold on my phone.

It's even bluer on my phone than on my monitor. My girlfriend insists the non-blue color is brown, I think it's dark gray. This entire picture is fucked up.

 

[Haribi]

I can't figure out if this is the greatest troll of all time or if you guys seriously see black and blue

 

[Floridian]

Color blind here .....

What colors ??

Black & Gray

 

[Psychotext]

All those white and gold posts confused the shit out of me.

Blue and black (well, grey) here.

 

[LCfiner]

blue and black. even when changing brightness on iphone. also checked my computer display. also blue and black.

 

[Sölf]

Blue and black.

 

[jph139]

Yeah that's 100% blue and black. The black is sort of shiny, I guess?

 

[ThatGuyAgain]

just deselect it

10/10

 

[alr1ght]

Here. Fixed the exposure.

 

[crazyprac]

If I strain my eyes long enough its light blue and gold. First glance scrolling on my phone is white and gold but seeing the whole its light blue and gold. How the hell you see blue and black? I'm being mindblown.

 

[niunhuiio]

Seeing blue and black here.

 

[MrCunningham]

I see a light violet and gold. I know that is white, but the back light is giving the white a light violet tone to it. I could never see black and blue here no matter how hard I try.

the two colors, from photoshop. dunno how you can say that's not gold

Exactly what I see.

 

[injurai]

I have perfect color vision, and it's blue and black.

 

[SoilBreak]

I'm seeing Blue and Black

 

[Haly]

Obviously black and blue.

See? Photoshop knows.

 

[Floridian]

Here. Fixed the exposure.

Still Black & Blue.

 

[SmackAttack]

On my laptop right now. I see white and gold. Showed my mom and she sees black and blue. Am I okay?

 

[Can Crusher]

Black and Blue.

 

[EBE]

white is objectively wrong. its blue. like... its blue. it cant be anything but blue
some people are then saying either black or gold but honestly the photo is so shitty it looks like both. looks goldish up top and then slowly becomes less so the further down the dress you go. but again, its not gold. its black

 

[Nanashrew]

its blue and black btw, just a really overexposed photo

If that's the case, then I am wrong and the person who took the photo really needs to take some lessons

 

[Cyan]

Clearly blue and black, even with brightness turned all the way down.

Is everyone else trying to trick me? O_O

 

[GavinGT]

 

[LeeRoyBrown]

Why would you post buzzfeed horseshit like this.

WHAT COLOUR IS THIS BANANA

WOW Its YELLOW.

I'm sorry I just find Buzzfeed to be the closest thing to clickbait.

It's almost identicle to shit like this http://www.clickhole.com/article/9-mind-blowing-things-hidden-1-bill-1708

How people can read horseshit braindead articles like this is beyond me. I almost imagine them drooling out the side of their mouth while reading it, heavy breathing.

 

[HTupolev]

bonkers that it's actually blue and black.

How is it bonkers that colors look different under different lighting/exposure?

But yeah, the image is a fairly desaturated blue, and a brownish/goldish/whatever. I don't understand how this is a discussion unless there's a really stupid trick happening with different images loading to different people's browsers; even if you have a hilariously miscalibrated display, it's pretty easy to verify the colors in something like MS Paint.

 

[Poltergust]

Still Black & Blue.

That was the point, maybe? I see black and blue in it now, but the OP is still white and gold.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Here. Fixed the exposure.

This helps explain what happened to the OP's photo. If I scroll my screen to only look at the bottom half of the dress it's blue/black. At the top it's rather greyish white and brownish gold.

 

[jgwhiteus]

Fun experiment: I first saw this on my desktop, and it definitely looked white and gold to me.

A short while later I looked at this thread on my tablet, and it looked black and blue.

Now, going back to my desktop, it appears black and blue - guess my brain has fixed on seeing it that way now.

 

[FullMetaltech]

I can't figure out if this is the greatest troll of all time or if you guys seriously see black and blue

I know. I just did showed this to 3 others in my house. All said blue and black but i see white and gold. I cant understand that.

 

[MisterAnderson]

Blue and black up in here
