Look at the darker side and tell me you don't see black and blue
My brain is broken. I still only see white and gold.
Well, afaik it was confirmed to be black and blue. Whatever, you may see it gold and white because your brain focuses more on the lighter parts. Try covering them with your hand or something
I do believe it actually was black and blue, but I find it very hard to believe that anyone would perceive the way it is presented in this picture, with that lighting and level of overexposure, as black and blue.
Even looking at the RGB values of individual pixels, they are distinctly brown/gold-ish and a pastellish faded out purple.
