What Color Is Real?


I am still musing upon the possibility that life as we conceive it might be an illusion.
With autumn, the color of leaves is changing from green to yellow, brown, red: all beautiful shades indeed. But I noticed that, as pretty as they appear to the naked eye, these colors seem to be much brighter - as if more lively - if I look at them through my sunglasses. Now I wonder: are the colors I see with my naked eye the rel ones, or are those perceived through the sunglasses the real ones that the naked eye is unable to see? Interesting puzzle! I haven't reached a conclusion, of course, and I probably never will. No big deal. But I would certainly like to know  what is actually going on!
