I exist all around you but I have no colour of my own. Without me you would see no colour at all. I am destroyed by darkness yet I create it. What am I?

Question

Accepted Answer

Light. Light itself has no colour — it is a spectrum of wavelengths that the eye interprets as colour. Without light there would be no colour perception. Light is extinguished by darkness, yet the absence of light is what creates darkness.
