Illusions of a naked eye...

What I see is merely the picture my eyes paint for me to see... For instance, is it really that bright outside or is my eye adjusting its exposure just as I manipulate my camera all the time? Further, do all humans see the same color - do I see a darker shade of red than others do? Does a dog see all the colors I do? I bet they can't differentiate between black and white (or any shade in between for that matter) which explains why they are faithful without any prejudice?

I've grown up to the adage that says trust only what you see with your own eyes, but going forward, I'll have to rethink this one...
