Black absorbes all color light rays and white reflects them. Like green is not really green, but all other colors except for green being absorbed, white is all colors being reflected and black is all absorbed. So really a black object is getting all the colors, and a white object is giving them all to you.

I like any color, as long as the alpha is set to zero.
