looks blue to me despite its composition





Colors are an illusion of the human eye, technically blue, red and green are the only colors we can really see, anything else is just an interpolation between the three colors.

So cyan is just an illusion, and in reality, it is not really blue.


it's both green and blue but i've always considered it to be blue

Cyan is a different color, unless you say purple is red
