This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Light bounces. If there’s a white/light coloured or reflective surface behind the camera, it will bounce the colour of the ambient light onto the dress, especially as overexposed as the photo is. What confuses me is where people who see the dress as white think the blue tint is coming from. Shadows don’t work like that.
