So I guess the bottom line is, there isn’t much point in taking
tetrachromacity into account when it comes to photographic color work since
it doesn’t effect men, and the handful of tetrachromatic women wouldn’t
be able to describe their color perception.

I just passed it along as something of interest.

A picture in front of the left eye will go to the RIGHT brain, as the optic nerves cross at the optic chiasm.

Correct.

Just as damage to the right side of the brain affects the left side of the
body, and the opposite is true for right brain damage with the added
possibility of damage to speech processes.

so much for your fantastic filing system.


And of course you read Alan Brown's contribution, critically. i don't
really know if you have, but it does seem you would rather make a nasty
comment.

Thank you for that. The more I read about perception, the more I realize
I have a lot to learn.
