Abstract
It is said that the color constancy does not take place in a photograph. This research aimed to demonstrate the chromatic adaptation and consequently the color constancy on 2D photograph as a real space by utilizing a D-up viewer by using the two rooms technique. The experiment was to observe the color appearance of a test stimulus of N6; (1) in the real room, (2) in the photograph through a D-up viewer and (3) in normal viewing of 2D photograph. Five colors of illumination were investigated. Subjects perceived vivid color for N6 in the first two conditions but not for the third condition to show the chromatic adaptation to take place when subjects perceived the 3D space even in the photographs.
