Deep River vs Sycamore Tree

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Deep River belongs to the grey family and Sycamore Tree to the yellow family. Sycamore Tree (LRV 28) reflects noticeably more light than Deep River (LRV 8), a difference of 21 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Deep River runs green while Sycamore Tree is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 41.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
