Hmm, not I.

I don't think the visual confusion adds anything to the image. On the
contrary...

It *is* an Isosurface!!!  I set the accuracy at .05 instead of .01.  Oops.

Or like it's been there for a *very* long time, so that it is 
practically part of the bridge.

I like it, but the objects in the foreground look very sharp and the change
from sharp
to blur seems very sharp. Has the image been adjusted in Photoshop?
Also my eye is drawn to the pillars front right instead of the guardian
(which
I assume should be the focus of the pic) Maybe move the camera a little to
the left?

Background is beautiful, I like the clouds. Modelling is as usual excellent.

Definatly good enough for the irtc. How about adding a creature leaving an
offering to the guardian in hopes of being allowed over the bridge.

That vaguely poped into my head when I saw it to, though the hydralisks from
the waste land cinematic poped into my head.

I figure it is down to me to help keep the overall quality down, otherwise
exceptional images like this wouldn't be ... exceptional.  ;)

Exactly. You and I and all the other "average" POVers must do our best and
suck in order for those who are truly talented to shine.
