I think that “coral” would be the more appropriate name, at least in the US, and assuming my monitor calibration is on target. Salmon is a slightly yellower hue, IMO. But as you note, coral can cover a range of hues. As a color designer/paint formulator at DuPont for 30 years, one of my favorite tasks was naming the annual palette of colors we offered to the automotive companies. We tried to keep away from names which were too fanciful, seeking instead names which would evoke the color in the mind of someone reading it in a brochure. Not always easy… Regards, Jim ***** A fanatic is one who redoubles his effort when he has forgotten his original aim - George Santayana -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
