Nice. I'd suggest working on the lighting (so that not *everything* is a
black sillhouette), and making the rings of the planet have a much larger
diameter (that is, a longer distance between the planet's surface and the
inside of the rings).

would look better if you could extend the water fog over the whole lake and
have a circular patch under the craft where the fog is gone

Am I missing something significant about the sky's reflection in the
water? I like the general scene but the reflection is far too bright.

You are right of course, the biggest reason that this is still WIP is that
I'm having a massive struggle with the lighting.

Seems that if I manage to have the reflection in the water at a more
realistic level of brightness then the rest of the scene is far too dark
(see Slime's comment about the lighting also).

Currently I'm reduced the messing about with the relative ambients of the
various objects in the scene, a frustrating and long winded 'trial by
error'...

Any tips welcome...

I don't understand how the water surface is lit - it must be night on
this Earth-like moon of a ringed gas giant, with the central
star below the horizon, but obviously the light doesn't come from the
flying saucer... and, interestingly, there are no stars in the
sky!

Cool. Nice and creepy/mysterious. Just a few things:

1. Others have commented already, but the reflection of the sky is *much*
brighter than the sky itself.

2. Where is the reflection of the ringed planet?

Is that just a simple "fake" fog used on the water? The fog might be 
confusing POV into applying the fog everywhere in the reflection instead of 
just on the ground. If it's not already, try using media for it.
