LPS is a nightmare.  I don't know who ever decided that it was suitable for
anything other than the most utilitarian lighting.  On streets, it's easy to
confuse with traffic lights, because it is such an absolutely monochromatic
yellow.  And you may as well shoot black and white in LPS light, because there's
only one color to it, anyway.
