The new processing engines in the cameras have serious HDR (High Dynamic Range, black blacks, bright whites, sounds like a washing powder advert) which tweak things and play with the image. You can turn it off to allow the real world to be seen if you need to but it does make things _pop_ a bit more.

What it cannot do is compensate for some effects. Peters Golden colour looks really different in strong daylight with lots of metallic fleck and underlying colour blend. In the photo the HDR seems to have lost this (or it was a dull day!) as it swirls around in the pixel soup.

Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.
