Lite to ur eyes, your eyes don't respond strongly to the colors tht were in the negative. You see white lminus the colors in negative, which produces the illusion of a correctly colored photograph
The "colorized" photo is an after image. You see an after image after you have stopped looking at something-in this case the color negative. When you stare at the negative, your eyes became adapted to those colors. When you suddenly look at the black-and-white image, which is reflecting white
I think I know how this works. You take the colored image and invert the colors. This is the image you stare at. Then you present the black and white image, and our brain gets bored with the colors you presented so it intensifies the inverted colors which are the real colors of the image. It's like when you were those colored 3D glasses for a while; one eye sees red more and the other one see blue more. Same principle.
the pic is always black and whit but the part of your eyes that see color are actually being worn out so the picture looks as if its in color but its not... look at the pic without looking at the dot it black and wite the hole time
@TheNightsMoon Wow! You just see it as black and white? This is VERY peculiar. Believe me when I say this: I had no idea what the illusion is supposed to be - I had to watch it again without focusing on the dot (you must stay focused on the dot for it to work!) to discover that the change was to black and white and not to colour. So it worked for me...but this is interesting! If you learn something about why your vision is so different from most other people, please remember to tell me!
@TheNightsMoon@TheNightsMoon Well - yeah. So now we know that it's happening with your perception as well as your conception. That it DOES happen with your experience. Now we understand that. It's clear and it's gonna be obvious from now on.
@Insatium not weird...its just a residual image trick...literally changing the way your optic nerves work for a second by overloading them....so you dont have to stare at the dot....u just have to choose one point and not shift your stare from it....try again using the top of a tower as the "dot" it will still work the same
Seriously, I kept seeing the colors of the castle until the video said "hey, we tricked you". Then it hit me: man, I'm not colorblind and this is awesome.
I love this illusion. I've found that if I remain focused on the dot even when the picture changes, it stays in color. It's only when I movie my eyes that it goes black and white.
If you keep focusing on the dot it'll stay colored a lot longer , as soon as you look away from the dot is black and white . Try to watch the picture with your periferic vision keeping the focus on the dot
wait, if this was a real illusion, wouldnt it still be all colorful if you just didnt watch the video until the very end? because no matter how long i stare at the dot, it always switches to black and white right at :20
ohhhh i get it now. the optical illusion isnt supposed to be that the entire picture changes from color to black and white, its that the black and white picture looks somewhat colored after a while. gotcha.
For those of you who didn't get it, the castle photo is black and white but when you see it after staring at the dot for some time your mind fills in the same colors that was seeing until then.
I wonder if these illusions can be used in movies to create some weird scenes.
okay, stare at the spot again. then youll notice the picture loosing color. Whats really happening is that when its starting to loose color. It lost all of its color it wasnt fading.
Damn... lol Ya got me.. At first i thought. Wtf? just two pics.. like five times i looked it and still - just two pics.. lol I went a page back and only then i finaly did get it.. lol
no you did... it is an optical illusion. The other is half colour yes but when you look at it its in colour if you look at the sepphia... so its the illusion that the grey picture is in colour when its actually not.
heh i know hes color blind lol so obvious its 2 different pictures anyways you don't have to be able to see color as a aircraft pilot because your rely more on radar then sight.
Ohh shit ohhh shit i just got it!!!! ...........

@wrichik Not quite true. The eye doesn't fill in the same color as it sees. It actually sees the complimentary color (the opposite color).
MacRief 1 year ago
@MacRief
That's right. It's the complimentary color that we see later. To be even more precise, the eye doesn't see any color at all.
The brain subtracts the color it was perceiving till then.
wrichik 1 year ago
@wrichik heh true. But still. If you have white and subtracts a color, you get it's complimentary color. So the eye sees that color.
I'll still call it 'to see'. We also 'see' optical ilutions even though it's our brain tricking us.
