Default Why the difference in color?

No, they're Philadelphia, and not yet, but...



...there are at least a couple people whose pictures we've liked in the past who have yet to post 2015s, despite the fact that over 4000 are in the flickr pool dedicated to this year (whence those below), and that includes the one spankycranky asks about (the ones referenced were from previous years, but of the woman who rode "oil"-faced this year)...
Sorry if this is off-topic, but when I downloaded (saved) these three pictures, and subsequently viewed them (using IrfanView), two of them still displayed exactly the same as they had in my browser, but one of them now has completely different, (darker, washed out!) colors:

Cf. the contrast with a screen-capture crop (made using MWSnap: It wouldn't let me capture the entire picture.)

Very rarely, I've previously encountered this same problem elsewhere -- I'm pretty ignorant as to digital imaging, but was wondering if anyone here could tell me what's going on, and why this particular picture doesn't save the same as it displays in my browser?, (yet both of the other two DO have exactly the same hues, both as displayed, and as saved to my hard-drive!)

Thanks!

(The first one is as it appears on the internet / in my browser; the second is as it saves to my hard-drive.)
