I think you have to correct the colors a bit so they match together better.
Which will make it look alot more real!

And the bottom, left middle.. Seems a bit strange? brown in the grass

Keep up the good work

hope im not too late... you have very hard shadows... if this is a night scene, you must have light sot shadows only... just my two cents...

Thanks Eyecon

Your right, it is a night scene that i wanted to be lighted by the moon... What do you mean by "light sot shadow"?

Ventana: I have the same problem i can see the picture only if my firewall is disabled... I don't know why. (I used imageshack)

sorry light soft shadows... not hard ones... very soft almost non existent, its like blurred especially since the height of the mountains suggests it. :D
