Don't forget your primary colors when planning your holiday display

Primary colors are a set of three colors that are used to create a variety of different colors. The primary colors are red, blue, and green. I always thought that primary colors involved some physical property of light. However, it is not a physical property of light; rather, but are related to the physical response of the human eye to light. This is because humans are trichromats; that is, we have 3 color receptors in our eye. What this means is that when the human eye responds to light stimulous it is always interpreted in terms of the three primary colors.

As result some of the most striking holiday lighting displays include a strong presence of the primary colors. For example, even if you prefer a traditional holiday display using only white Christmas lights you could make the display more visually attractive and stimulating to the human eye by adding some accent color using blue Christmas lights. The same improved visual effect can be created by using red Christmas lights and green Christmas lights as well.
