If there were some object in the frame that is widely known to be white, and accordingly it appeared orange, then this thread wouldn't exist.

This is interesting, because it's becoming less an issue of color constancy, and more an issue of being observant... because I think in V's example we'd all agree that the front square appears orangish/yellowish or something and the top one is clearly brown.
