Being colour blind this story caught my attention.

I don't know about you lot, but I see a pale blue dress with light, muddy brown lace. The light portion is definitely NOT white, and the lace is certainly NOT black. Tell us what you see, Data. :)

I see the dress as white and gold but I wouldn't go by my eyes.

It is actually blue but looks white and gold.

I've seen this a lot the past week.

Thanks for the video Snowcrash that was a nice explanation  :thumbsup:

I think my eyes were doing the compensation thing, so when I originally looked at it I saw gold and white.
