Psychological reaction to color. Red is warm, blue is cool.
Color temperature measured in degrees Kelvin (K)
Daylight = 6500 K
Tungsten = 3200 K
In dim light, blue looks brighter than red, and in full daylight, red looks brighter than blue.
The Purkinje effect fools the brain into perceiving moonlight as slightly bluish, even though it is reflected sunlight.
Color Space: Cont.

The process of converting from one device's color space to another is called gamut mapping.
Primary Colors = hues from which all other colors can be mixed
Secondary Colors = hues that come from two primary colors
