Craig, it's hard to tell ... but the subtle difference between Fireglo and Walnut is tough to capture with typical digital cameras. Here's a side-by side example:
4001 Fireglo and 4001 Walnut
4001 Fireglo and 4001 Walnut
You can see that the digital camera I used (an older Olympus D400-Z) still gave the Walnut a hint of red. The camera also oversaturated the red in the Fireglo (it wasn't that pink).
