Questioning


 



Color and image perception are in the brain of beholder

It's not only color perception :

Michael Brady quote :
http://www.physlink.com/Education/AskExperts/ae353.cfm
"It is true that the images formed on your retina are upside-down. It is also true that most people have two eyes, and therefore two retinas. Why, then, don't you see two distinct images? For the same reason that you don't see everything upside-down. One of our most remarkable tools - the brain - is hard at work for us at this task."

But how does the brain do that ?? What's physical detail explaination ?
We have 'myopic eye','color-blind' but why we don't have genetic case of "inverted-eye".

Another experts with their quotes :

Paul Doherty with his pin and hole :

What's Going On?
Your cornea and lens makes an inverted and right-to-left reversed image on your retina.
Your brain inverts the image.
You perceive the image to be uninverted and unreversed.

Donald E Simanek with his adding depth to illusions:

My quote :
What makes inverted and reversed images of the illusions ?
If electron-microscopy apply magnetic-field lens, is there something like "gravity-field mirror/lens" in our mind ? Just speculation.
