I couldn't even see that.
Gamma???
After major brightening I can decipher the image.
3 pharoah dudes on the far side of an arched bridge.
The bridge crosses a chasm illuminated by filtered light from high overhead.
There is some secondary oblique light source high above the viewers right 
shoulder
The whole scene is almost monochromatic.
At first I took the media scattered downlighting to be some sort of veil or 
curtain.
Perhaps you need to thicken up your chasm media (for more scattering) and 
toss a whole lot more light at it.
