Edit: the gold and white effect was supposed to happen only for the original (I saw gold and white). People wrote on Reddit that they were finally seeing the true (blue and black) color. I also used a different screen to view this picture to make sure it’s not a screen issue, and I still see gold and blue on this picture.
From a post on Reddit. I see gold and blue.

Not this crap again. It depends on your screens lighting but it is blue and black

just look at the HSL profile of a blue pixel. Surprise, it’s blue.
I’ve been looking at this photo for like 10 years and even though I know for a fact that it’s blue and black I only ever see white and gold
Same for me, across dozens of screens and different apartments and at school and… I don’t think it’s just the lighting
I know it’s actually blue and black. But that effect only existed for that specific picture, because of the specific lighting. This isn’t the original, and I also used a different screen to view it. I still see blue and gold.
