If you calibrate your monitor you're more likely to see an accurate representation of colours and brightness.

That's still very dark on my iThingy.

You must get a suntan sitting in front of your monitor!

As already mentioned, it does say 'Moonlit' in the thread title. I have no idea about other people's monitors, but my second photo is at least as bright as one posted up on another night shot elsewhere.
Anyway, in response to requests for a daylight shot of the car:



See? Now it's just as boring as 90% of the other photos here.

OK, here are a couple more photos with no artistic merit whatsoever:





Seriously, could anyone see the night-time shots OK? The second one is as bright as thousands of other photos on t'internet.

That's odd. My grille is the correct fit to the front edge of the bonnet. The car has after-market headlights (not fitted by me), perhaps the grille was changed to match?
