Mr. Robb speaks the truth. And note that fluorescence involves
absorbing light of one wavelength (ultraviolet) and re-emitting the
energy at *different* wavelengths (in the visible spectrum).
Looking at the other photo from the party that Igor posted, I suspect
there was a significant amount of blue skylight from the window. The
brain has the power to process for that and still detect the colors in
the tableware. The camera sensor does not.
