Yellow Polka Dot

Polka dot

The polka dot, also written polkadot, and also called spot printed and spot print in the United Kingdom and pois ("peas") in France, is a pattern consisting of an array of large filled circles of the same size. Though the dots must be relatively large ones, and must be all the same size in any given print, different styles of polka dot prints may change the size of the dots or the distance between them.

Polka

Yellow

Yellow is a color between green and orange on the spectrum of light. It is evoked by light with a dominant wavelength of roughly 575–585 nm. It is a primary color in subtractive color systems, used in painting or color printing. In the RGB color model, used to create colors on television and computer screens, yellow is a secondary color made by combining red and green at equal intensity. Carotenoids give the characteristic yellow color to autumn leaves, corn, canaries, daffodils, and lemons, as well as egg yolks, buttercups, and bananas. They absorb light energy and protect plants from photo damage in some cases. Sunlight has a slight yellowish hue when the Sun is near the horizon, due to atmospheric scattering of shorter wavelengths.
