agreed, the shift in hue and saturation draws the attention to the front because it is the richest in colour.
the details on the buildings make a huge difference. what I thought was a shaft of light is now two buildings.
great touch with the lights, it wouldn't be a perfect white when it hits the people, nor would it be a perfect white coming out, trying shifting it towards a cool or warm colour (depending on the age of the car)
*I had a go tweaking the lights around and I couldn't find any colours that worked well, still a thought though*
added in a few things, window details, gaps between buildings, tubing to the neon lights (maybe have one of the glow?)
