no but, elements can effect the light (if there was any) causing it to show its colors
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectroscopy
without light, those aspects would still remain within the elements
I really like that dream answer though.

Color of any substance is due the light it radiates.
When sun light falls on a substance, it absorbs some part of the sun light (spectrum)and radiates remaining part (with phase difference), which eye recognize it with particular color.
Color is nothing but an optical phenomenon.
No Light no color.

No. An object has a color only when light strikes it and some of that light is reflected.
If there is no light, or if an object absorbs 100% of the light that strikes it, the object has no color. It simply appears black.

Color or colour (see spelling differences) is the visual perceptual property corresponding in humans to the categories called red, yellow, white, etc. Color derives from the spectrum of light (distribution of light energy versus wavelength) interacting in the eye with the spectral sensitivities of the light receptors. Color categories and physical specifications of color are also associated with objects, materials, light sources, etc., based on their physical properties such as light absorption, reflection, or emission spectra.

No because the wavelength of light makes the different colors exist.

No it would not because of the fact shade is the nicely-known that describes which wavelengths of coloration the medium absorbs or reflects, as mentioned by way of the guy or by way of a photographic lens. If there is no gentle then this high quality can't exist anymore.

You require light to see colour.
The colour of an object is the reflection of the light that has not been absorbed by that object.
Simplified:
Black is the total absorption of all light while white is the total reflection of light.
If there is no light, everything will appear black.
Good Luck

As I understand it, color *is* light- reflected light. A substance has properties that reflect and absorb certain wavelengths, giving you color. So... the properties exsist, but the actual color? no.

Color is the result of the way we percieve light. It is not a property of the light itself, but a result of the way our eyes and brain interpret the light.

No...color arises from differences in the energy of light "waves".
