Perception is a key factor in understanding. However, we all perceive things in different ways. In my mind the colors I see in the pictures above, are what I know to be the colors of a rainbow. Unless you are colorblind, you see the colors of the rainbow too. We both see the same colors, but we may perceive them differently. For example, when I see the color green, how do I know it is the same color that you call green. If I held a green piece of paper up and called it green you would call it green too, but do we really see the same color, or do we see different colors and were only raised up learning to call the color we see green? In the big picture, this doesn't really matter, but it is interesting to think about.
