It's annoying but true: Instagram uses algorithms that sometimes brighten your photos. Just adjust the settings before you post for the win.
Instagram automatically adjusts the exposure when you upload a photo, probably thinking it's helping you get that perfect shot. Try adjusting the editing settings manually before posting!
Maybe Instagram just loves a well-lit photo! Just remember you can always take control with the in-app editing tools.
