Here is a view I like. But I think it can be better. I just don't know which way to use to improve it.

So I hope you'll give me comments and critics for the next step

I think this is a very good scene to spend time on.
start with some outcrops and bolders and such. Things just need to be diversified a good bit more. Also some color variation in the stone, looks like you are only using 2 colors. Generally most images in this forum are really good, but just lack lots of fine details (mine too). ITs tiring to do that, but its worth it.

Break up your strata a bit more with a smallish, scale PF.

Take your image into PS and do some post processing. Try to play with tone and color and contrast. See what you can achieve there so that you don't have to do all the work in TG, it would be faster to do anything that can be done in PS. The render is a bit flat now, but I know the info is there already, just bring it out more in PS.

Thats all I can think of at the moment.
It has been eaten.

My main crit would be that it's very bleached. Darken it considerably for more drama, add some more trees and diversity in the grass, and try to find a pov that has something on the foreground, for more depth. The lighting through the clouds is great as it is.

I'd repeat what Dune says. Darker and more / ddifernt vegetation.
Great light beams!
