Best decking oil colour for pine?

Do not like the yellow effect that natural stain gives but am stuck on what colour to go for.93yr old Bungalow is grey, windows black/white. Thinking Walnut or a darker colour that isn't poo brown. Ideas/ photos

I went to the shop and got a sample brochure, ripped off all the colours I thought I'd like and threw them down on the deck in the sun and decided which one looked better- crazy but it worked.I've got a colour I like.

Dark colors (walnut) attract heat and tend to lead to planks splitting. pale, like "mushroom"or Alabaster, maybe!

we used the 'kwilia' colour from Cabots. Its Sweet.

I tried that on an offcut and looked really washed out.
