Nice. May I? I would keep the back mountain simple, add much more grass (or in patches, so only specifica areas are rocky/earth), and patch the dandelions, add more shrub (patches). I like the shadow in front. When still doing a lot of photography I often searched for these shadows in landscape pics.

Yes you may. and I will give er a shot. With only 8 G RAM it gets really sluggish on a terrain that size, about 10 k square. Trying something else at the moment that's considerably closer in, like 1 k square and it uses memory better so I'll apply these tips to that as well. I like foreground shadows as well as you may have noticed...If I was a photographer I'd take a lot of those.

Or make a little ripple/bump in the grassy area and replace grass behind it by procedural grass with the same colors. Some bush halfway and you won't notice the transition.
