What is the complementary color of blue?

The colors of light (for photographic purposes):BLUE (primary) and YELLOW (secondary) are complementary.RED (primary) and CYAN (secondary) are complementary.GREEN (primary) and MAGENTA (secondary) are complementary.NOTE: complementary is not to be confused with complimentary.Also, pick any of the above secondary colors. The one you chose is made up from combining the other two primaries. If that seems confusing, keep in mind that these combinations have nothing to do with pigments (e.g. paint, dyes, etc.). You have to imagine laying plastic/acetate filters of those two colors over top of one another and looking through them under lighting conditions that are close to daylight in color temperature.In case it is not clear, the first point answers the question. Yellow is the complementary color of blue.
