Actually *puts pedant's hat on* That looks more like 8000K.
8K wouldn't be visible - it's down in the low bass audio frequency (!!) IIRC, from the conversion charts, it's about 10Hz in effective frequency. Red light (just above infrared), however, is somewhere between 10^13 and 10^14 hertz.
The "K" isn't Kilo, it's Kelvin.
And now back to your regularly scheduled forums.
This PSA brought to you by the letters K, the digit 0, and the units of measure for both temperature (Kelvin) and counting (Kilo).
