Memorial Weekend Special


My friends commenting on my images sometimes notice that my colors seem to be “off.” That is because I have the most common form of color blindness, Red/Green. Perhaps about 10 – 12% of males have it! It is rare in females.

I don’t see anything in the circle with the dots in the picture. If you don’t or if you want to easily test yourself go to this ***colorblindness site.***

Cheers, don’t blame me if you turn out to be color blind also. ;-)

Wow. Interesting. It seems I'm not color blind. I just can never decide what white balance look I like.

29 is a great number Robin. I have color problems as well, but I Guess not in the same spectrum. Regards.

I want to know why this works. Maybe because it's almost 11pm but it's driving me crazy.

Great concept for a image!
That has to be tough with photoshop and all.

What circle? :^)

Hey, wait, you mean you can't appreciate all of the work I put into getting colors just right! Darn.
Gayle P. Clement29-May-2005 14:43
Fun, Robin! I love this.
Guest 29-May-2005 14:39
That would certainly be a problem in editing shots! I think I'll claim that malady sometime! Oh, wait - I can't - I read the circle properly. Oh, well.

I enjoy being a girl...well okay, an old girl :>)
Herb 29-May-2005 13:36
The blue looks OK to me...LOL
Wm. Bates29-May-2005 12:41
Is that number the age you wish to be?

Ut oh...now I have no excuse when I hose up the color in a photo. I can see the number.
Gary Blanchette 29-May-2005 12:35
**Phew!** Thank God I passed the test on that web site!
Larry Ahern29-May-2005 10:08
I see my age (yeah sure) in the circle. Do I pass???

Very cool....guess I'm not color blind....LOL, although I've been known to dress as though I were!
Guest 29-May-2005 05:10
How come your image doesn't come up at all????? I don't see anything...LOL.
Great shot and test. Have a great weekend.:)
Guest 29-May-2005 04:58
Interesting test! I'am 'normal' as well. Guess I am not in that 10-12%! Interesting image!
Gary Winters29-May-2005 04:56
Hmmmm...all i see is a partial answer to the question, "What is the meaning of life?" (For a complete answer, please read or see 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy'".

Neat image, Robin!

This test must be wrong. It says I'm normal. No one who knows me would agree with that.
