Quick Color Identification Quiz for Editors

Without using a color picker, can you correctly identify all six color casts, using the center image as your reference? Start at the top and go clockwise when listing your answers. Hint: folks who have uncalibrated monitors won't do as well.

..reaching for aspirin as my eyes hurt. I can see a difference, but can't name the color casts.... that's way above my one cell brain power.

Classic RGBCMY color correcting I fear, is a lost art. Teevee-style controls are much more familiar to Genx-y-z, and some have gotten pretty good at it.

No takers? My, the art of RGBCMY theory seems lost....🙁

I don't think "lost", but maybe in the Off Topic, which doesn't get the views in the Video forum?
