The Colors

Today I will review the colors of the rainbow. I'll go by the standard ROYGBIV.

Red:: This color is alright. Its pretty powerful, but is also the color of things like blood, which can make people feel queasy.
ORANGE: This color is easily one of the top colors of the rainbow. Nothing rhymes with it, which is pretty cool. The color they have for the highlight doesnt do it justice though. A bright orange is very pleasing to look at, and is a prety exotic color. Not many natural things have the color orange.
YELLOW:: Yellow is a good, but also bad color. Certain shades of the rainbow are cool to look at, but some shades can hurt your eyes or can just be annoying. Yellow is also a very hard thing to read if it's used for writing, which is also no good. Overall yellow has its drawbacks, but can be great.
green: Green is a great color. It's a color that symbolizes nature, and being good for the environment. It's a color that can also have a second meaning, like "going green", and also things can be described as "green" which is always a good thing, because it means it's good for the environment. Other than that, Green also has the most discernible shades out of any other color, which is why night vision goggles are all in green. So not only does the color green carry other meanings which always describe things positively, it also has a very practical use in our life.
Blue:: Blue is a very cool color, and is usually seen as being cold. Blue is also the color we probably see the most, because our sky is blue. Many people confuse Blue with Indigo because they are very similar, but I think blue is the superior color because its very pleasing to look at, especially if its the same shade as the sky.
INDIGO:The fact that so many books still name Indigo "the greatest or most significant or most influential" color ever only tells you how far the rainbow still is from becoming a serious art. Primary color critics have long recognized that the greatest primary colors of all time are Blue and Red which were not the most vibrant or smooth or bold of their times, let alone of all times. Secondary critics rank the highly controversial Orange over other colors which were highly popular in art around Europe. Tertiary critics are still blinded by commercial success: Indigo sold more than any others (not true, by the way), therefore it must have been the greatest. Primary critics grow up looking at a lot of colors of the past, Secondary critics grow up looking at a lot of colors of the past. Tertiary critics are often totally ignorant of the colors of the past, they barely know the best sellers. No wonder they will think that Indigo created anything worth of being saved.
