Obviously there is a story there somewhere...

Upon reflection, why is the girl/boy all alone?  If this is a typical method
of transportation, why aren't there more individuals floating around in the
air?  If it is atypical, where is the investigating ship of site-seers, come
to look at the flying character?

The scale of the station is immense as reflected by the small "window"
bright squares.  Looking at the whole picture, there is an imbalance of
scale with the figure's position and all the other objects in the scene.
Another way to say this is there is nothing that transitions me scale-wise
from front to back in the picture.  The close ship should have something of
scale on it that is relative to the figure...then, repeating the ship closer
to the station allows me to make a scale/distance transition to the larger
object.  I'm left with the impression this is a giant child come to smash
the Liputian water station.

It must be market day as all the ships appear to be converging on the
station.  The traffic control fellow must be on break to allow this
wholesale enmass approach pattern.  The human figure implies human order to
the society, not an alien mindset.

Other than that, it is an impressive image as your's always are.  Keep up
the good work.
