Yep it's another one of these things.  

 

:leveinproblem:

 

 

Do you see grey and a pale turquoisey colour, or are you tripping balls and see some other radge combination? (apparently lots of people think it's pink and white)

Grey and green to me. This is about the concentration of cones in your eyes or something isn't it?

 

The concentration of acid on your tab IMO.

Over 50% of posters so far have defective eyes, interesting.

 

It's hilarious too because I assumed you were correct (even though I see pink and white). Put the photo into a graphics program, and sure enough. If you use the eyedropper tool on the "pink" area it gives you a flat grey colour--nothing reddish/pinkish about it at all, and using it on the "white" area gives you a clearly turquoise colour:

Human perception, man. You cannot trust it.

P.S. I'm fairly certain the #1 factor in how you perceive the colours will be the light level in the room you're currently in.

I tried it in daylight, office light and holding my phone under my desk in the dark. Always grey and turquoise.

I mean, you're obviously superhuman :rolleyes: But for mortals generally, that tends to be. That stupid dress, that happened to me and several other people I talked to--they looked away at a brighter or darker area of the room for a small bit, looked back, and the colours had swapped on them.

They're pink and white trainers, the picture is shite and I can see why folk think otherwise!

 

The colours lifted directly from the image are squares I posted above. Grey and turqoise.

 

If the trainers in real life are a different colour then the photograph has had it's colours altered.

This. I'm so used to editing photos that my mind compensates now for the lighting conditions in the photo - it knows that the trainers are pink and white, just that the photo quality is crap. In saying that, my mind is overruling my eyes, but that's how human sight works so I'm not going to hand myself in to the asylum quite yet.

It looks like it's the light in the picture making it look grey and turquoise. Tbf I seen those colours until I seen the pink and white comment! I think I've seen those trainers in pink but not grey too!!

I looked up an article on it and read this too. I sat next to the window for a couple of minutes and went back to the article - now one of the pictures looks pink and white, the other still grey and green. Weird that.

I think the screen you view it from makes a difference too.

 

I see white/grey trainers with the minty green trim.

Pink and white but the pink is much more vivid than the original photo.

Ah ok. Yeah the one on the left actually is pink and white. Right grey and light turqoise.

It's interesting - the originals may be pink and white but it appears the technology hasn't recorded it accurately. Paint shows it as grey and green pixels too, and that means that some people are able to see past the shitty technology's shortcomings and "read" the poor lighting to see the original pink and white.

Now that's weird. Straightaway I thought Pink and White. Read the thread and went back to the top and now I see grey and turquoise.

I was a grey and minty green guy through and through until this image. Here is see both pink and white with the left image more vivd.

I then scrolled back up to the OP and now that is pink and white too :sob:. Now I feel like my mind is a sham and it lies to me. How do I know what any colour is now? What if my maroon is actually everybody else's green? :sob:

I assumed when people were seeing pink it was in space of the minty green. Now I see its the entire shoe. That's not possible :sob:

Your perception of reality is influenced by other people's suggestions. A scammer's dream. ;)

Anyone seeing pink and white either needs their eyes tested, or a new monitor/screen.  For the avoidance of any doubt or trolling whatsoever, I've pulled out a sample, at random, and enlarged it for clarity:

148023774_JKBShoe.thumb.png.1777e9a6fab396318d8f6fea2ed7fccd.png

The main body of the shoe is (on average) this colour - https://www.colorhexa.com/878882 - which is described as "Dark grayish yellow."

 

The sole, laces and pattern are (on average) this colour - https://www.colorhexa.com/a3d0cd - which is described as "Grayish cyan.".

Those colours to the right of the shoe look nothing like it. I am still seeing pink and white.

And I have 20/20 vision as recently tested. Infact, the lady said I have the required eye sight to be a RAF fighter pilot. 

 

If it turns out that the trainers are grey and mint green then it must mean reality is somewhat bent out out shape.

I have slightly better than 20/20 according to my optician as of August, at best I'd say that the shoe is pale/dusky pink and off white but pink and white is what I see.

20/20 refers to the sharpness/focus of your vision, not colour perception.
