Hi Everyone,

Here are my suggestions;
Use better images for start.
Move the sun to the left.
Lower the saturation in shadow areas.
Watch the matte lines.

I agree with AliK and also be weary of your perspective lines. Im also not sure what you are trying to convey...and Im especially unsure about that wheel thing in the right corner and spaceships flying around? It's quite flat to look at and has no real sense of depth. The horizon looks funky where it's dark in some places and ligher in others....like there is a weird whiteness over your mountains on the far right. Also bare in mind too that colour begins to soften the further you get away where it turns to a slight bluish colour and also objects loose their detail. Just a few of the things I learn in Colour and Design. Hope this gives you an idea.
