Interesting.

(23,738 posts)If they'd mixed red and green, I'd be screwed, but I'm already used to deducing the differences between colors based on lightness/darkness and saturation alone (without the benefit of hue), so maybe that helps here?

(12,712 posts)That may be so.

(23,738 posts)So I'd assume that if my 'mix' is wrong (or 'non-standard', as I like to think of it, lol), I might see some colors better than most.
I always figured it was the blue spectrum, though.

I have a coworker that is colorblind...I'm gonna have him take the test and see how badly he does.

(12,712 posts)An example is that I was with a friend once and we were looking out at some trees in the sunlight. I said, "Look at all the glorious shades and hues of color on that tree!"
My friend replied, "The leaves are green and the trunk is brown, what do you mean?"
I think you know where that was going. It's an artist thing.

(53,410 posts)So many people give color an insignificant secondary importance, when what it needs is to get equal billing! You can take one object and with color you will change everything about it, and change it all again by picking another color.
