My wife and I saw The Dress for the first time together, and reported
different results. in that picture it is obvious it was taken on a sunny
day. And we both saw it in the same lighting.

So, I don't think it sufficiently takes care of the problem.

Maybe if the distributed a color sheet that must be included in the
picture in proximity to the kesem, and the rabbinic side of the
software corrects the colors displayed based on knowing what the
sheet should look like.

If the woman prints the color chart herself, you widen the uncertainty.
