What shade of brown eggs do Orpingtons lay?

I have three standard BO girls:
Pip lays a creme colored egg with white spots.
Pumpkin lays a brown egg with brown spots.
October lays a brown/pink egg.
These girls lay 3 lg/med eggs most days and I can look at any dozen and tell you who laid what!
 
Wyandottes lay the lighter color - the ones on the left. The Buff Orpingtons lay a lovely light brown, sometimes with a pinkish cast - but there is a lot of variation. This is the last three days from my flock of 9 (crazy hens have started laying on the roost, and I've lost a few eggs!!!)
