Google Image Search is massively used image search engine that up until now only allowed you to search by keyword and resolution. While this is suitable for most cases, sometimes you need a bit more specification of the type of image, specially when the image has to go along with some sort of context of if you want to use it for some presentation.
Keeping this in mind Google released a new feature that simply allows you to add a color parameter to your image search. Meaning, for example, if you wanted to search for fruit you could now search only for red or green fruit, like the images below:
Of course you could still just search for “red fruit” but even though Google will probably still return a valid search result, the outcome might not be so accurate as expected.
Just go to images.google.com and try it for yourself!
