    Very cool resource! A word of warning though: don’t use this in the field. Your laptop/tablet/phone screen does not show true colors unless you’ve somehow done color-calibration, which most people won’t. There’s a reason the printed booklets are so expensive. Accurately recreating real colors is harder than you might think.

        For sure! And it can still definitely be used as quick reference in the field, I just want the students out there to know that colors are hard and can be surprisingly subjective out in the glaring sunlight.
