Good job, the contrast thing is a 30 second fix in post.

Nope; Post-processing is a no-no for IRTC stills...

Brightness/contrast issues aside, the media does look quite grainy even 
with the current dark and low contrast version you show.  This version 
does have a nice mood to it, but the figure is perhaps a bit too 
abscured by the gloom.

Actually, yes you can.  I just double-checked the rules.

www.irtc.org/stills/rules.html#images

Rule 5.f.iii says (about the exceptions to the no-post-processing 
rules):  You may gamma-correct and contrast/brightness adjust the image.

The other two exceptions are:
5.f.i   You may convert images to JPEG format.
5.f.ii  You may add text information (name, title, email address, 
copyright. etc...) to your image.

It's _not_ media. See if you can work out what it is...

Well, I'll be. Wish I had read that more closely when I was entering ;)

       I believe it's a window because I can see three windows reflected in 
it with something behind the camera.

> nice mood btw

        Agreed.

Plants (bushes) and their shadows? I can just make out what look like bushes
against the far wall (a nice touch.)

Very moody and atmospheric. Dickensian! Like Olde London.

Regarding the post-processing issue:  I'm quite surprised that gamma and
brightness/contrast correction are allowed, since they can  radically alter
the look of a scene...and would thus seem to qualify as *major* image
manipulation (which could instead be accomplished to any degree desired
within Pov-ray itself, with a bit 'o work.) Not sure I understand the
relaxed rules about that. Call me a purist!

The grainy fog is an isosurface.
