Usually I colorize things because the black and white never looked that good. But this one is an exception, it stands out quite well. But the original scene was color, and I wanted it in color. I chose duller colors so the eyes land on the sunbeams.
The "To trains" sign, originally, I made it red, to match another image I made. But apparently, they still use this very sign. I think they may have replaced the neon, but its identical. So I made it brass like it looks now, and instead of a yellow neon, I went with the blue that was in that sign. Which I think honestly looks a lot better than what I chose.
I took some liberties in removing some distracting light sources in the background. Nothing you would miss, just distracting points of light.
