Looks like light bluish gray. LEGO hasn't been entirely consistent in the
amount of pigment used - there is some variation.

To me they all look dark (bluish) grey, in any case not light bluish grey.

That could just be the lighting, there's nothing in the photo to compare
it to. Here I increased the exposure, something which could be accomplished just
by taking a longer photo of the same parts! This is why it's useful to include
other random colors in the photo, to help our brains calibrate (because we know
what Red should look like, for example).

The grays are the hardest for me also. I would put a lot more specialized parts
out there for sale, but I'm too nervous about getting the color wrong.....
Good luck to you. I would guess that in this case, the middle brick is light
bluish gray.

Narrow the focus - remove the back-field - reduce exposure - drop contrast levels
- cool the temp - move away from the green spectrum.
You'll start to discern the “Bluish” in the newer Dark Bluish Gray color

Or in the Light "Bluish" Gray, whichever the case.

The difference is that:
- the left one is Light Bluish GrEy
- the middle one is Light Bluish GrAy
Joke apart, it seems the LEGO printing on the middle one is "faded" or very used.
That could be an old part; hence the color "difference" (which I more guess than
actually see, but it's another story).
HTH?

I think it is light bluish grey but in a lighter shade.
Maybe they used a bit less color by accident.
I see a lot of differences in dark and light bluish grey, reddish brown etc.
Sometimes small differences, sometimes larger differences.
It is in my opinion not the very light grey color, that is even lighter of color.

Plain ABS is a milky off-white color. What you are looking at is a light bluish
gray part that did not get enough colorant added to the ABS to "darken" it up.
When enough colorant gets added, it almost completely removes all signs of the
natural milky off-white color of the ABS. Unfortunately, that plate was not so
lucky.
