I think that Jean is getting some good input about the "apparition." It's an afterimage just like many other afterimages that people experience. And, yes, with opponent processing, the afterimage of red will be green (and vice versa), blue will be yellow (and vice versa), and white will be black (and vice versa). However, the McCullough Effect is evidence that those pesky afterimages may not be have such a low-level or "physical" explanation.
