Afterimages occur when the cones in our eyes become fatigued after being exposed to a particular color for an extended period of time. In the case of staring at a magenta picture, the cones that are sensitive to green light become fatigued, causing a green afterimage to appear when you look away. This is known as a complementary afterimage, where the afterimage color is on the opposite side of the color wheel from the original stimulus.
What else can I help you with?
Why when you stare at green for a while and then look at white it appears blue?
This phenomenon is known as afterimage, where the cones in the eyes responsible for perceiving green are overstimulated and become fatigued. When you then look at a white background, the signals from these cones are temporarily distorted, causing the brain to perceive a different color, in this case blue.
Stare first at a blue circle and then shift their eyes to a white surface the afterimage of the circle appears?
This is because staring at the blue circle fatigues the photoreceptors in your eyes that are sensitive to that specific color. When you look at the white surface, those fatigued receptors are unable to respond effectively to the white light, so you perceive an afterimage of the complementary color, which is orange in this case.
If you stare at blue then look away do you see yellow?
Yes, if you stare at blue and then look away, you will see yellow. These are called afterimages and the colors are complementary, or opposites. You see the opposite color because your retina becomes "tired" and when you look at a different background, the tired receptors do not work as well for a moment and the information from the receptors will not be in balance. (Some information from washington.edu).
What happens if you stare at one color for a long time?
When you stare at one color for a long time, you may, when glancing away to a blank surface, experience an optical illusion where you seem to "see" the object you were looking at in it's opposite spectral color (green to red, for example).

What causes an afterimage?
Afterimages are caused by overstimulating the cells in the eye responsible for perceiving color. When you stare at a bright image for a prolonged period, these cells become fatigued and continue sending signals to the brain even after the image is removed, creating the illusion of an afterimage in the opposite color.

Why do people see blue dots for a little while after looking a camera's flash?
They are experiencing "afterimage." The following site explains the phenomenon and offers a simple experiment to demonstrate it: http://www.psychologie.tu-dresden.de/i1/kaw/diverses%20Material/www.illusionworks.com/html/afterimage.html The instructions are to stare at a picture of a black light bulb on t he computer screen and then to shift your gaze to a clear white section of the screen. In addition to that procedure, you can stare at the image as instructed and then close your eyes. In a few moments you will see the same result as you did when you stared at the white space. If you have a flash that you can fire, darken the room, set off the flash to light a nearby area that you are looking at (look at the area that the flash will light, not at the flash itself!), and then close your eyes. The afterimage phenomenon will entertain and instruct you. [spelvin]
