I have of course read about the "blob effect" but more in conjunction with darker camo patterns, does a lighter more open pattern also alert them in the same way. I guess my point to this post is trying to find out if lighter more open patterns such as"natural gear" or Predator camo are more versatile and more tolerable to deer than say a darker pattern like Advantage timber when all othervariables (lighting, foliage, cover)remain the same.

From what I understand they see varying shades of blue and yellow, but not to very good extremes. As far as your question, they do pick up the contrast of light/dark pretty well, thats why so many people worry about the "blob effect." So its a good idea to have a few sets of camo to wear depending on the tree that you are in. Obviously its best to match your surrounding as much as possible.
