    Thanks Gents!

    Hopefully Sattva will be along soon - there must be some really nice purples in Bharat aka India.

    India = Colours. Lots of it. Yes.

    Purple is going to be a challenge 😀

    There is a good reason why its the royal colour!

    I do have some photographs of Jacaranda in bloom during summer. Let me find them first.

    Nice color contrast with green which is opposite on the color wheel:

    The Jacaranda tree in bloom will have to wait.

    The above though, are beautiful flowers in a barren, wind swept landscape at about 4700 mts. in Ladakh. En route to a high altitude pass which we were to cross during our climbing expedition last year.

    Quite an accomplishment if you ask me. The flowers existence that is.

    Ladakh is a harsh and desolate terrain...an extension of the Tibetan plateau, where average elevations hover around 3700 mts.

    Unfortunately, i do not know the name of the flower. The local people with me were also clueless.

    Regards,
    Sattva

    On your colour wheel, Ted, magenta (marked 300) is opposite to green -- which is OK.

    As there are two independent variables for hue (the two opponent signals), I prefer a grid to a circle.Level1.Rec709.RGBvalues_p1.jpg

    Thanks, Don,

    I would never have known that.

    Sandy's petals are about 15 deg towards red - which I guess you already measured.

    The grid has values similar to angular positions within the CIELAB color circle albeit rotated 90 degs.

    When comparing colors I use CIELAB to see how far apart they are.

    There is loads of ivy where I live, it grows on everything, walls, buildings, paths, trees, everywhere.

    Yes, loads where I live too. It's a very successful plant.

    However, the plant in that photo is so named because it looks rather like ivy, although it is not related to it.

    Yes, purple in theory covers a wide range of perceived color going from violet to red ... see the so-called "line of purples" on a CIE chromaticity diagram.
