Is Black a Color Is White a Color?

The answer to this question is one of the most debated issues about color. Ask a scientistand you'll get the physics reply “Black is not a color, white is a color.”Ask an artist or a child with crayons and you'll get another: “Black is a color, white is not acolor.” (Maybe!)

It's also important to understand the concept of "primary" colors. The fundamental rule is thatthere are three colors that cannot be made by mixing other colors together. These three,red, blue, and yellow, are known as the primary colors.

Black is the absence of color (and is therefore not a color)When there is no light, everything is black. Test this out by going into a photographic darkroom. There are no photons of light. In other words, there are no photons of colors.

White is the blending of all colors and is a color.Light appears colorless or white. Sunlight is white light that is composed of all the colors ofthe spectrum. A rainbow is proof. You can't see the colors of sunlight except whenatmospheric conditions bend the light rays and create a rainbow. You can also use a prismto demonstrate this.The sum of all the colors of light add up to white.

I say to understand Black and white picture you have to take only B&W picture for least twoyears. or till you start to understand and see the colors in black and white.

And to take good colors picture you have to understand black and white picture.

Black and white picture are equal to Colors picture. The magic behind good picture issimplicity.

Nokkuð góð þessi - dvaldi dágóða stund við hana og komst að því að hún kallarfram blendnar tilfinningar - annars vegar felur hún í sér tilboð um kyrrastund oghvíld , bekkurinn togar - en um leið hrekkur maður við og áttar sig á að það erbleyta og hráslagi í þessu umhverfi.Vel fangað - vel rammað - vel unnið.Posted 6 months ago.
