Default Your color for Vega

In your eyes, what color is Vega? [Defocusing your scope is very helpful].

Images are certainly desireable, but let us know your color setting. I used 5800K for my setting, assuming that this would be our natural eye's best temp.

This comes from a post in another thread and is an off-shoot of heliochromology.

Do you recall the camera and settings?

Do you have blue eyes? [My son has blue eyes and sees objects bluer than I, but he is also younger with greater aperature, too.]
