The green and blue colors... are actually the same color.

Oh, very nice, had to take it to photoshop and zoom in to verify.

I'm not sure I get it. I measured the values. What appears most bluish is most blue, and it's not the same as the 'green', That is more red, only appears more green because the smaller greenish color stripes are the same.

What values do you use for green and blue. There are no pure green or blue colors in the picture. But the other two spirals in between, the pink looks the same, and they measure the same. So they should be the same.

I don't do well on color tests, so perhaps that is the problem. I still have not figured out the mystery. Is it the green colour on the left that is perceived as blue?
