The color of this handbag again "clogged" Internet users

Recently, another object of endless disputes over color, which, as before, has divided people into 2 categories has gained popularity. It's time to decide: on whose side are you?

This time the subject of discussions was a lady's handbag, a photo of which was published on a twitter by a girl named Taylor Corso (under the name @whyofcorso) with the signature: "Say hello to everyone with my new baby." One of the users left the following comment: "White. Boldly, "to which Corso replied that in fact it is blue. And from here on the Internet began another debate about what kind of all the same color bag, they can be found and read on the hashtag #mybag.

So, first, the color of the bag is actually blue, or mystic blue, to be precise. But why then do some consider it white?

Why is the bag blue?

And, as always, there are the most usual explanations for what caused so much noise, as in the case of a white-gold or blue-black dress in 2015. For example, on a computer monitor, the colors of any photo are slightly distorted, the color rendition may be inaccurate, and the pictures look different even when compared to the same image on the smartphone screen. If you do not believe it, try to compare, sure, you will notice the differences.

The phenomenon of color consistency also played its role here. This means that our eyes differently see the same objects, depending on the environment or context. For example, we will each time differently perceive the color of the same object in daylight, from an incandescent lamp giving warm lighting, or from energy-saving lamps. It is worth considering, before drawing conclusions about the color of any object in the photo.

So, blue or white? Bad lighting played a joke, someone has a wrong perception or is it a distortion of the color reproduction of a non-calibrated monitor?

Corso decided to finish this story with dignity. She secured a tweet on her page to raise money for treatment for all people with diabetes, thereby making use of growing popularity for good.
