INSTRUCTIONS: Make green something that is originally some other color.

I wanted to make not just one thing green, but everything green. In the end, color is about perspective. So I decided to change my perspective by making "green glasses".

I took a pair of clear glasses and covered them using transparent green cellophane.

It's hard to photograph through glasses, but the result proves it makes things look a lot greener.

Neat! Did you walk around and experience the greenness for a while?

I agree, very neat

I also want to know what it felt like; tell us more!

I took a brief walk around my neighborhood on a sunny afternoon using the green glasses. It was great at first, basically like wearing normal sunglasses with a funky green touch, but I realized that, after a while, it became somewhat nauseating, an unwelcome side effect of seeing everything green.

I think green vision is only meant to be used moderately.

Cool

I like hearing about how it feels to see through colored glasses. I used to have blue, red and yellow colored specs (no rose, sorry). The blue made me feel a little mellow, the red a little aggro, and the yellow made the world look so happy.
