Spring Rain vs White Heron

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Spring Rain reads as blue, while White Heron reads as white-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. White Heron (LRV 87) reflects noticeably more light than Spring Rain (LRV 60), a difference of 27 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Spring Rain runs blue while White Heron is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 19.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
