You can see objects because your retina is sensitive to light and you eyeball can focus it.
You can't "see" color - that's a frequency coding illusion that your brain makes up for you.

Yes. If you use your eye to see the picture, you will see color. If you use photogrphic paper to record the image, whether or not you see color is determined by the nature of the film -black/white or color. There is nothing in the physics of the camera that prevents you from seeing color.


How can you explain how objects appear to have color?

Objects appear to have color because of the way they interact with light. When light shines on an object, it absorbs some colors and reflects others. The colors that are reflected are what we see. This process is called selective absorption and reflection, and it is what gives objects their perceived color.


How can you see objects that do not emit light?

You can see objects that do not emit light by reflecting light that falls on them from a light source. These objects reflect light in various ways, depending on their color, texture, and other surface properties, allowing you to see them even if they do not emit their own light.


Why do black objects are seen black?

The "color" black is not really a color. Black is the absence of light. Black objects have pigments that absorb all light and, therefore, none is reflected for us to be able to see.


Why do you see objects as different colors when light shines on them?

Because certain objects can absorb specific wavelengths of light(color) and they reflect the waves that they cannot absorb. the reflected wave of light is the visible color of the object.
