-Sky does not have the right perspective.
-If you want to keep the sky purple, I suggest add a hint of atmosphere with the same color to the horizon line.
-Another suggestion is to keep the sandy area from original image and try to blend it with the desert.
-You can also add some sand dunes to the right far back for better composition.

Alik thanks for reply...

Well i dont understand what you say about sky perspective :?
about blend the sand I think that too but my problem is the "hole" in the place where the sea was ... for that I dont like the idea of put dunes...
I mean in my consept ..the waters goes but this happend in a short time ago..for that we still can see the sea floor without plants and things ...

but well ill got to use some of your ideas... thanks .... :)

And sorry form y bad english :(
