I tend to agree with others in that the second platform seems to diminish
the impact of the image - makes the first platform look less monumental
and, well, enigmatic. Maybe you could use something else to balance the
image (an island, a large moon, etc, etc) and/or shift the viewpoint so the
platform is more centered.
I'd say the clouds still need some work, they are too bright and look
somewhat solid (remind me of porcelain for some reason). Perhaps a little
fluff along the edges would help...

Leave it just like that.  There are some washed out looking
bits of waterfall but they just add to the atmosphere. 

It looks finished to me.

The falls are looking really good now, details on the station are excellent.

What will you show us next, Mr. Day?

A winner!  You might play with the sky and the mist a bit, and I agree with
the folks who think the second station is a mistake (try re-using one of
your other wonderful spaceships instead) but overall this image is getting
to the point of diminishing returns.  Beautiful :-)

Any chance you could put a larger version on the web?

Nice..

Just an idea : the second platform has to be farther, and in a hole in the water
too...

    I agree that two implies hundreds, and the station loses it's
incongruity and uniqueness. The falls are a little grainy but other-wise I
would replace the second station with almost anything else and then call it
finished.

    Maybe a fleet of supply ships coming in at about 300 ft? Or a close up
of a ship leaving? Anything occupying about the same visual space would do,
but something that adds to the story would be best.

    What's the story?
