Makes sense. Direct sun light closes the pupils and increases contrast.
This makes bright spots bearable, but less bright ones darker.

Yes, that last (not yet committed) patch fixed specular for me. :-)
m.
PS: Just in case that wasn't clear: I'm not an expert in such things.
I just compare the results in fgfs (especially the bo105/ctrl-y)
with what I (seem to) see in RL, and try to apply some common sense.
But often enough one's own idea of "common sense" isn't quite as
common as one would hope. That's why I think more user input from
others would be an advantage.
