Green IS traditionally an off-putting color, when we're talking about light: aliens, x-files, goo, and everything witchy.
But in this context the thing that's harder on the eyes is the bubble itself. So the lighter one is easier for me. Although I'd rather see no bubbles at all.

- jasonjamerson 4y agoThat's why I said green light, which is unusual in nature. Sure, it's a little green when it filters through leaves, but that's very hard to perceive because the yellow of the sun or the blue of the sky usually cancels that out. It's almost never enough to light up another object with green.
- martin_a 4y ago> Green IS traditionally an off-putting color I don't think that's true for the reasons you put up. Our eyes are specialized to distinct more shades of green from each other than with other colors. That's a useful evolutionary feature when you are an animal and have to hunt in the wild. For humans that leads to the point that we're rather good in picking "unnatural" shades of green (gooish ones and self-emitting shades of green).
- jasonjamerson 4y agoAbsolutely, I'm referring to emission of green light, which is unnatural.
