Interestingly, even on this slide, the shadow that extends from B looks several shades lighter than A. We can see in the next slide that they have the same RGB values. However, there's some property of the zigzag that creates that visual strain that makes the colors appear different. My question is why does the effects of the shadow create such a drastic difference? How can just removing allow us to recognize the true color values?
