If you look at parts of the pictures where the water didnt reach, tops of buildings etc, then the colours is not "dingy". The airport shots are good examples. The roof and boarding gantries are still clean and white. Think about the colour of the water in the videos, it's black and full of debris and mud, all of which will have been dumped and left behind when it receeded turning everything black. Think about pictures of the inside of a house after it's been floodeded. Covered in mud and sludge.
