Mark, 

What a remarkable post.  I think your hypothesis has merit.

  Subject: [Digital BW] Greenies (cross-post)


  I just wanted to make a quick comment on the "greenies". I tend to see 
  green when the midtones are compressed. As an experiment, I was able to 
  skew a greyscale image in Photoshop so that it looked like it had a touch 
  of olive to it (monitor at 6500k), so I know, for myself at least, it's a 
  trick of the eye. It's probably more pronounceable in the prints than the 
  monitor for me because of the warmer tone. If my monitor is at 9300k, it 
  goes away, and at 5000k it's more pronounced. I'm not saying that there 
  isn't something else at work for others, but I wanted to throw in a vote 
  that all eyes aren't the same from someone who actually DOES see the green.

  Mark, the visual gimp :|
