Hard one to call , they look very similar but not quite the same , could only be the different light angle etc though .

you can't really compare images...

different monitors, different lighting, and different eyes...

just look at the three different greens in your signature ian.. (and mine..) :)

best idea would be to steal the door of the car that you like the colour of.. then take that to someone that does colour matching, then try get the door back on before anyone notices....

or keep it, fit it to your car and you won't have to buy as much paint..

Looks like turn 4 at Sandown to me. Not a NSW regular driver so either Vic or SA most likely.
