Color Deficiency

For this assignment, you are going to do something a little creative.  I want you to imagine life with a color deficiency.  Describe what it would be like to see the world if you lacked S-cones, M-cones, or L-cones, or had Rod Monochromacy, or Anomalous Trichromacy.  Describe each of these with enough detail for the reader to understand.  Then take a picture with your smartphone and use filters to adjust it to create images of what someone with each of these 5 deficiencies would see.  You will probably need to create and upload a document for this submission.  Adobe makes a quick, easy, and free app for editing photos: Photoshop Express.  

If you don’t have access to the resources of a smartphone or picture filters, find images online, or draw images that demonstrate a view of the world of people with each of these types of color deficiencies.

Make sure you label your pictures with each type of deficiency.
