In contrast Point B where a pure blue triangle shape is now surrounding the pure orange wave line . The pure blue is a complementary color to orange and this fact allows the shapes to preform a after image effect. It this effect that causes the orange to have a more intensive saturation level. Looking at the two different oranges you can see a contrast in hue and saturation, one being a higher saturated then the other.
