Resanded and varnished wooden floor- streaks??

I have just had my floor revarnished and sanded- it is Tawa hardwood floorboards. Oh be noticed the floor seems to have yellow streaks that I haven’t been able to catch well on camera. Has anyone seen this before? Am I being picky or does it seem like it’s not been varnished properly?? They are quite yellow in real life. I’m deciding how to approach with company who completed work. Thanks!

    We had the same issue with yellow/green streaks in our refinished rimu floors. It's something to do with tannins in the wood - we found the only way around it was to replace the affected boards with reclaimed ones. But make sure the reclaimed ones don't have the same issue by sanding and checking before laying.
