Colour :
380 nm to 740 nm), it is known as "visible light."
Most light sources emit light at many different wavelengths; a source's spectrum is a distribution giving its intensity at each wavelength. Although the spectrum of light arriving at the eye from a given direction determines the color sensation in that direction, there are many more possible spectral combinations than color sensations. In fact, one may formally define a color as a class of spectra that give rise to the same color sensation, although such classes would vary widely among different species, and to a lesser extent among individuals within the same species. In each such class the members are called metamers of the color in question.
The color of an object depends both on physics and on perception. Physically, surfaces can be said to have the color of the light reflecting off them, which depends on the spectrum of the incident illumination and on the reflectance spectrum of the surface, as well as potentially on the lighting and viewing angles. However, a viewer's perception of the object color depends not only on the reflected light spectrum, but also on a host of contextual cues, such that an object's color tends to be perceived as relatively constant, that is, relatively independent of the lighting spectrum, viewing angle, etc.

Black :
Black is the shade of objects that do not reflect light in any part of the visible spectrum.
Scientifically black is not a hue (color); a black object absorbs all the colors of the visible spectrum and reflects none of them,

So are Blues win out Laughing
