Is this bleaching? Why?

Dear All,

I recently moved my tank. I re-started with fresh RO-slat mix, using the same parameters as original etc. Everything is fine, except this one coral.

Previously it was in quite a shaded spot. Now it is in full light, but on the bottom. Is it likely that the light is too much? Note, it is the same light.See below pics for before and after.

Definitely bleaching, I'd move it to lower light since that was the main change.

Thanks. I created an shaded overhang to place it under. Hope it recovers. It is my favorite coral!
