The pink card 2nd from the left has the same RGB value in both images.

Congratulations, you've discovered what's called "color cast." It's why our monitors are liars and the image of what you thought was a white/gray car will print out looking purple.

Let's test your hypothesis! I'll remove your eyes, then you tell me if you can still see.

We detect with our eyes and interpret the data with our brains. The result is seeing.

I feel like the pink card second from the left looks the same in both pictures. Am I missing something?

Apparently everyone has a different brain. Who knew?

I have deuteranopia (red-green colorblindness), they look the same to me.

As far as I know, I have don't have any color blindness (if so it's very faint, since I generally have no issues distinguishing colors), and same for me. :)

I mean, I realize that it's stated in the description, but the way it's stated implies that they should look different somehow?

Does the top pink not look brighter and more vibrant to you?

Nope, they look the same. Obviously the color quality of everything around them are different, but if I drift my eyes back and forth between the two of them, the pinks look identical to me.

Well, I'll amend, the pink definitely stands out more in the first image since it's surrounded by cooler shades, but if I'm comparing the two pinks with each other, they appear the same to me.
