    It is actually black and white, but there are colored lines crossing over the picture that fool the mind into viewing it as a colored image. This is what is known as an optical illusion.

      So it isn't actually black and white but partially colored.

          Look at the portions between the lines. They are black/white/gray, but appear to have a color. You'll notice the skin seems to have a skin tone. Your optics are fooled, hence it is an illusion. An optical illusion.

            It works from a distance and works in the same way printed colour photos work, the eyes are fooled into seeing many colours when there are only really four.

              Not really. You are adding color to the image so it's actually got color now. Are you retarded?

                You are correct, Afroman! It
                IS
                a color photo since it has color in it!

                                      I wonder if they colored the shirts the real color the shirts were in reality.
                                      One shirt appears yellow with yellow squares, and one appears blue, one green, etc. I wonder if the shirts are really those colors. Now that'd be the illusion: if the blue shirt was really yellow, the yellow really green, etc

                                        It slightly works if you change the colors to a similar color. Yellow to green, blue to purple:
                                        Here it is in with the lines made gray:
