I see grey sneakers with pastel green laces.

I bet some of you will totally disagree. Some of you might even say I'm lying about the colours I've stated in this post.

Yet I'm telling you the truth....the truth as I am able to perceive it.

Note : Might be an idea to save the pic and share this exercise with family, friends and colleagues. There's a lot we can learn from a shoe. Watch this topic.

“If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, Infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro' narrow chinks of his cavern.”  - William Blake.

I see grey with turquoise laces - the grey has a sort of pink undertone, but that's probably the camera.  Sometimes I get the best sunsets etc, but my tablet simply will not encompass the colours - so frustrating.

We're gonna need a better camera.

"Red shoes with turquoise laces,
A polka dot vest and man oh man,
Red shoes and turquoise laces,
And a big Panama with a purple hat band.."

So if it's held under a different light it changes the colour to the eye...

Gordon forget the camera. That's irrelevant.

The question is this : right now looking at that pic...what colours do your eyes see?

It's a pastel turquoise....said by someone who's done pro video editing Wink

Greens often do get perceived differently due to  colourblindness, but more often than not people just miss describe the colour they see.

Gordy.....just tell me what colour the shoe is and what colour the laces are when your eye balls make contact with the pic in the Opening Post.

Hope you're happy, you made me walk downstairs to my computer with the big ass IPS monitor.

When I glance at it, the shoe looks grey and the laces, trim look like a shade of green in pastel.

If I stare at it, it looks less green and shifts a bit to pink.
As someone who's done editing, I know why Wink

I see a suitable companion for Valkie/Vickie on his rock fishing expeditions.

Lisa Jones has plenty of time on her hands and she values her time as zero.

If Ozpolitic was a dating site Lisa and Valkie/Vickie would be a perfect match.
