My personal color space nightmare...

This is really a gamut nightmare :wink: . A decent monitor reproduces the sRGB color space which is also web standard. Colors directly derived from light sources are often difficult to map into this space.
It gets even worse when you try to print on paper. While the monitor uses additive color mixing, prints employ substractive color mixing having a differnt smaller color space using mostly CMYK as colors. The result then strongly depends on the software setup to map the colors and the possibilities of printer and paper used.

Here my simple attempt in color:
