Here’s an interesting exercise making the social media rounds lately – http://www.igame.com/eye-test/ – See how sensitive you are to subtle shades of color differences. (For instance, differences in paint touch-ups on a dark accent wall that’s been exposed to the sun for a few years!)Click on the “more info about colour vision?” link at the upper right of the page for some interesting facts about how our eyes perceive color.
I (Alanna) did pretty well on the test and hit Hawk. I’d be interested to see how different computer monitors and room lighting scenarios influence the results… but maybe that’s a little too nerdy for a quick online test?
Oh and, as a proper nerd, without my glasses I can’t see a worm from the other end of a yardstick…
