I see it as obviously black and blue, but i think the idea that anyone sees navy blue is a misconception and leads to much of the confusion. What i instinctively interpret it as is something closer to sky coloured, but clearly blue.
The black is a bit different because it’s very clearly showing up as golden to the camera, but 1) it would be a very fucking ugly colour of lacing, 2) the photo is clearly taken in strongly coloured bright lighting so it’s pretty obviously not the colour it looks like, and 3) it’s a pretty safe assumption that any dark lacing is just pitch black.
This is basically what i intuitively interpret it as looking like in more normal lighting:
This is what finally helped me see black and blue:

That has both interpretations, but it didn’t help. I’ve never been able to see white and gold.
So, in the video, when you looked at this:
You saw a dark black and a navy blue? Or is it only in the context of the full image that you’re seeing it as dark black and navy blue?
