It's blue and black. The over exposure in the "original photo" causes people with weak retinas to see it incorrectly.

Then how do color blind people see it?

You can be color blind and have weak retinas. On top of that color blind people can't see color so it'd be white and black, probably with varying shades of grey. It's quite possible that colourblind people would see different things.

That's is actually one of the rarest cases of colourblindness. Being colour blind isn't not being able to see colour. It's the inability to distinguish one colour from another, the most popular case of it being red and green.

One of my friends sees it as blue/black. He's color blind.
I see it as white/gold. I'm red/green color defiencent. Not a true red/green color blindness as I can see red and green. I just can't see certain shades of red and green when put next to each other.

It was white and gold the first time I saw it and I stared at it for at least a minute, I looked away for like 5 seconds and when I looked back the damn thing had changed colours on me to blue and gold, after a very big wtf moment I looked again and it was blue and black and has been ever since.

What dark sorcery is this?

I cropped the center photo to remove the sunlight and starred at it for a while, then looked at the original and saw blue/black after first very clearly seeing white/gold. I then cropped out the far right photo and did the same thing and it reverted. Doing the same thing with the left photo it went back to blue/black....

This is some messed up stuff...
