Was Playing with clouds and ended up with this, god knows how lol, anyway I'm in need of inspiration as to what to add to it.
This is a lava test? If that orange stuff is lava then there is some things you could do to make it better.
If you want fresh lava you might want to make that orange lava a little more reddish. Dry lava, as everyone knows, is black. You might want to stick some black specks in there anyway.
I guess it depends on what kind of lava you want, but anyway there's my suggestion.

I think the overall colour is not bad at all.
I presume you where not thinking of "dry" lava when making this.
The colour is simply a function of temperature, so more or less yellow is definitely allowed!

In order to make the image more interesting you could ad some displacement to your "stream", it hasn´t to be as liquid/ flat.
Also I think some specularity would be interesting and not unrealistic.
Some vegetation bursting into flame on contact with your lava could look dramatic, but won´t be easy to achieve.
have fun!
I did a lava scene a way back with good results too, plenty of displacement and warping on the child layers and add luminosty as well
Perhaps some drying lava at the edges, with Voronoi cracking?
Voronoi crackling? whats that?
