The PJ search engine is your friend!

You might look for cliffs too, these are weird; and you need a horizon!

And for some reason, it's an ugly jpeg... probably stupid imageshack's fault.

That white lines pass as waves for me enough, but learning is always good.

On the other things: why rock on the foreground casts a shadow, and cliff not? And why trees in the background don't cast shadow?

yeah I was going to fix that and I agree, cliffs are looking strange.
@Manupix:What do you mean I need a horizon?
Thanks all, I think I will finish it soon...

What I mean is you have a problem with perspective. I can't explain this in detail here. Either check the excellent wikipedia article about persp, or the little tutorial I just added to the 'noobtorials' thread.
In short, the tree line being sideways is unnatural. Either there is a horizon line behind it, or the trees are the horizon: should be horizontal. Also, the cliffs need a vanishing point. An edit would help, but I can't make one from where I post. Sorry.

Looks pretty good (besides JPG. Eew!), but I'd upload it to Photobucket. Imageshack is pure fail. x_o
