The only time we actually get a mirror image of the object is when we're looking directly at it and there is enough light surrounding the object for us to see it.

When the eye focuses on an object and we see that object, what is in our peripheral vision? What about the objects in the background or off to the side that the eye is not focusing on, an object that is further away and out of focus to the eye? Do we see them if the eye is not focused on them? |
We see it exactly as a mirror image, which means the peripheral vision would be blurred. It's an inverse relation to the object's absorptive properties, so it makes perfect sense. |
No it doesn't quite make perfect sense to me. You state that we need to be looking directly at an object to see the mirror image of it, but the other objects around we are not looking at directly so blured or not how can we see them? Could you explain this in more detail, because right now it seems like a contradiction to say that we need to look directly at somethingto see it, but we can still see something that we are not looking directly at? |
Just trying to understand this? |
I won't answer you until you stop cracking jokes at Lessans' expense. |
In other words you don't have an answer, and you don't really understand efferent vision, or you still havent figured out more fiction to fix it up. I've already pointed out the contradiction in your statement and you can see that anything you say is going to contradict something else you have said. This nonsense about jokes and sarcasim is just your weaseling out of giving an answer. You have said that we need to look directly at an object to see it, so anything we are not looking directly at should just be a white fog of nothingness, In fact you hinted at that a few pages back. There is nothing between the objects we are looking at, just blank screen. Besides I don't need to make jokes about Lessans. If you had an answer you would offer it instead of stalling because you don't know.
