like as a physical property. i don't know any color-ology maybe there's a simple way to make me get it but
IT SEEMS like color depends entirely on BRIGHTNESS so an OBJECT can't have a fixed COLOR because BRIGHTNESS changes all the time!

it's the wavelength of the photons that bounce off the surface of a thing, after some wavelengths have been absorbed. so like, green things aren't 'green', the stuff they are made of reflects green. so no, 'colour' is not a physical property, but an emergent one on how light and matter interact which is dependant on a lot of things like brightness and the medium the light travels through and all sorts. and even then, the actual colour spectrum you and I see is entirely constructed by our brains and specifically how the human brain compiles that sensory information as something you and I understand
