My terrain, used a bunch of other peoples clip files...but, it needs something...some excitement or focal point but, what? I need inputs and suggestions on how to make this cool! Plants, water, lava, a comet....I don't know if it can even be saved....still, I like it...its simplistic....nah, not good enough, needs more work....help! Don't hold back....this image needs something...maybe you can help me make it better. I've already gone through 5 versions.....someone please surprise and influence me to finish this one. Is this the final? I hope not.
Thanks!

I like the all you have here except the planet and nebula. The stars are great with your lighting/atmosphere; and, those dreamy soft clouds are very nice. I think less is more here. You don't need more things here.

I like it too, but a horizontal layout might be more interesting, so more of the left will be visible. Perhaps some weird trees in foreground, or a strange building on the (rather dull  ) righthand corner.

very nice colours and lights.

planet seems big for me but i can think it is a Markal's signature

The pov seems wrong to me.  I'd like to see less of the ground and more of the sky and possibly the horizontal format suggested by Dune.
