Observer
Name carol y
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks the initial white that I saw was as bright as a firework sparkler... wasnt sure if I answered closely enough on the question you asked earlier about the inital color... the color was very bright, \"intense\", and the blue that I saw reminded me of the blue color you see when a gas stove is on.. or in my chemistry class when we are using bunsen burners.
