Memory Color Effect vs Relative Color Wheel

[edit]

The strawberries in the featured picture look red because the picture is using a limited color range with an abundance of cyan in the background. The object with the color of the strawberries would still look red even if it was a "non-red" object. The memory color effect is only exacerbating the effect, but the primary reason is simultaneous color contrast. As Michael Bach wrote, "The predominance of green-blue shifts the perceived white point, giving rise to a reddish perception of areas which are objectively white/grey." https://michaelbach.de/ot/col-strawbsNotRed/ ~2026-34879-72 (talk) 00:34, 31 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
