Even if you zoom in really far? Thats what I cant wrap my head around. The colour is so far from black I cant see how anyone would interpret it as black.
Definitely. Part of how it works for me, is I see the lighting around the space, and how white/bright looks, and how it's VERY different from the dress.
So then my brain picks up on how light in the image works, and then makes a profile that the camera is shitty in a shitty environment, and how to interpret color and context.
Only after that does my brain decipher what's in the picture, being The Dress®
I would argue that if somebody de-blurred the picture, and cut out the dress apart from the background, and just had the dress........
Hmmm... Nah, because... even then, I can see how the seams are basically black or far darker blue (like in the shading), and not actual white or gold.
Yeah I just don't get how white and gold is seen.
