Cleavis, Thank you for this post, I have seen some "green" silver prints and thought perhaps my vision has become so sensitive about green neutral prints, due to the metamerism my 2000P suffers, that I was not seeing them correctly. I really enjoy your information. I think it all comes down to personal taste and subject matter... as you said, the green print by Mr Sudek was "appropriate" in it's tone. Perhaps we all go to a little crazy trying to find neutral (or *our* neutral).
