And it will depend on the placement of these around the,border of the pale background group. I usually try the 'step back and squint' test myself. Good start.

However, now that others have pointed it out, the cream one does stand out because of the apparent lack of contrast in the centre (although that may be just how it appears on the screen).

I thought it was those because in the cream one there's almost no contrast in the central square block, and the other one because the centre is so dark it almost appears solid. It just goes to show that photos often don't give the true story, and those two look OK in real life! <br />I hope you'll be feeling better very soon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-412097977899482006.post-90377956716322806152015-10-21T11:54:12.481-07:002015-10-21T11:54:12.481-07:00And I thought it might be the inner one on the low...And I thought it might be the inner one on the lowest row, the centre a lot darker?
