Been working on this for a few days. I still feel like it is missing something. This is my first matte painting by the way. Thanks for all your critiques!

the waterfall on the left should not be so enlighted. Also the house on the top-right.
And the lake....has something wrong with perspective. (in my opinion,of course!)

The lighting on the houses does not match with the rest of the image and i think that the top ones should be smaller compared to the bottom ones.
Also the bottom houses have obvious jagged edges and the perspective is wrong(i think) ,and finally the lake seems frozen and does not blend well at the point were it meets the rocks.
Sorry!

Nice try though!!!

the lake is for sure out of perspective. It should be at the same height of the grass, while it's higher...
