How well do "you" see color. - Page 7

I enjoyed that doing that hue test. My score was 6

can't get the page to come up. probably because I'm out of the country -

I did it very quickly (less than 2 minutes) and came up with 4. Age 48 and an Apple Cinema Display 23in - so both as old as the hills.

Perfect score here. I think I took around 5 to 10 minutes. Very proud of myself. (Age 40)

My hearing on the other hand is abysmal.....

Will try it on my 27" iMac calibrated monitor at home.

19 on the first try with my 40" samsung LCD. Will try again.

Seems my problem is with greens. Every other color im perfect with. Why is that?

Your score: 22
Gender: Male
Age range: 40-49

Maybe about 2-3 minutes to do it... :-s

And on a different monitor (and taking a little longer time):

Your score: 8
Gender: Male
Age range: 40-49

Perfect Score - with proof

I'm 32 years old. Male and RGB colour blind.

I found this so difficult. Took me over an hour till I was happy. My score was 239. Hahaha.

No wonder sound is the most important factor to me in life. Sound and smell.

If I understand correctly, my sometime blue|green discrimination problems are a sign of possible mild tritanomaly (so called 'blue-yellow' color blindness)...

One try, got a 4...could definitely tell that I had a couple wrong but I just couldn't differentiate long enough to move them into the right places. Took me about 15 minutes, was also watching TV at the time.

64 years old here. Got a 36 the first time. then I went full screen and zoomed in my out of calibration 30" pro monitor and got a perfect score. I have daylight balanced CFLs in here, but it's late and I'm tired, so I'm pretty happy. I was a house painter for much of my working life, and a semi-pro landscape photographer, so it's good to know my color sense works OK.

Thanks for the thread Alan. that was fun.

45 Male and got a 12....guess I will try again and see how close I can get to perfect.
 

Last week I had my right eye 67 year old caterac replaced with a glass caterac. The colors I see with my new right eye caterac are narkedly different then the colors through my aged left eye caterac. I suspect my right eye caterac has significantly yellowed with age filtering out part of the yellow and making reds and browns much more pronounced. Its almost as if the colors in the articial caterac eye are of higher luminosity substamtially making them lighter and moving them more toward green. Everything is much lighter in my right eye.

In the following image, I wonder if there's a way for you to tell me your score and how easy it was for you to "make" your brain see squares A and B as the exact same shade.

You all have seen this before, but on the off chance you haven't, the A and B squares are the same shade, but the apparatus within your brain responsible for "color constancy" mucks with it.

I'm betting that the higher scores have a harder time with it. But I'm just guessing:

Without covering anything up and just by staring directly at it, can you "force" yourself to see them as the same shade?

I've done the colour test a few times and got a perfect score each time, but I cannot for the life of me make the A and B squares "look" the same in my mind.

I'm also horrible at picking paint colours for walls and visualizing the paint chip colour on the wall. I will spend hours agonizing over two very similar shades of light beige because the difference on the chips is obvious to me, but once on the wall a) it never seems to quite match the chip and b) I can't visualize it on the wall before painting.

Hah. Well, with my population sample of 1, I'm right on target. LOL.

sebberry, look at this image: If you look at this image and let your brain "relax" and see the two squares as the same (can you?), if you then cover up the rectangle with your left hand, can you maintain them as the same, or do they snap back to different without any control?

scored an 8, screwed up on the blue/blue-green and pink/pink-orange areas. Terrible monitor so maybe I can do better, very interesting.
