Try Again...
Our color perception comes from billions of neurons interacting and using our vision system to display millions of colors and hues. Red, being a tricky color and sometimes invisible to some with problems in their color vision, is one of the most important colors and hues we should be able to distinguish. Make sure your screen is on normal brightness and that your eyes aren't tired - and try again! If not, you can also have a look at the answers.
 
Great, you have normal color vision
You have a normal person's shade-detection for the color red. That is critically important, as many do not have the ability to very subtle change in hues of red and green, especially men. Thankfully, it seems you have normal vision and a normal ability to detect shades of red, so you probably don't have any color vision problem - we're happy to report!
 
You see all the hues!
Wow, you must see every hue imaginable! Your ability to detect and differentiate between shades of red is impressive as heck! Many people have a problem with red because a red/green colorblindness is very common, especially among men. Red is linked to green in our brains and so often the colors are connected. You not only have the normal level of red differentiation but way above average! You must have the ability to see very small changes in hue, which really impressed us. You ACED it!
