The grocery store was painfully bright after the dark day.

The light was low, but seemed very bright after their walk through the dark.

The kitchen seemed too bright, after the shadows of the parlor.

The lights still burned, bright after the blue darkness outside.

At that moment Bud arrived, his eyes bright after a few hours' solid sleep.

But they continued to snore and I realized that the light from outside was not very bright, after all.

Or maybe the day only seemed bright, after all the recent gloom.

You are far too bright and bubbly after last night.

The lights were bright after the dimness of the club.

Light from the stairs made the hallway seem almost bright after his room.
