It's down to two things. Cameras record colours with variations on the true colour and I would be willing to bet that most of the pictures were shot using auto white balance.
AWB works best when there is something white in the picture and there's next to nothing in the pink tonka piccies that's white.
Throw into this such things as picture styles and you are bound to have variations.
Now. Please forgive this,
THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH DAN'S PICTURE.
Far from it as he has done well to neutralise the glow in the sky from the sodium street lights.
I just pulled it at random and done some colour correction, using the white of the eye, a piece of sky that wasn't totally clipped half way up from the cockpit and the highlight on the nose as a neutral.
You can see the colour variations on two patches, the variation on the white across the sharks mouth and the variation of the pink aft of the intake. Also the variation on the concrete.
It should also be noted that the colours will vary with uncalibrated monitors, mine is calibrated.
I should say that ultimately that in every instance it is the authors pictures and they can do with them what they want as far as editing/processing goes. There is no right or wrong.

No problem!!
Worth noting that I edit on a MacBook Pro, of which there is no way of calibrating the colours - unless I am mistaken!! So it is more a case for me of editing to what looks right on there!
