The first two symbols in HTML color code represents the intensity of red color. 00 is the least and FF is the most intense. The third and fourth represents intensity of green and fifth and sixth represents the intensity of blue.

#FFFF00 -Combination of red and green color gives us yellow: Yellow

#CCEEFF – Take some red a bit more of green and maximum of blue to get color of sky: Sky Color
