I also love where the clouds are sitting, to fill in the negative space around the figure.

The only thing I don't like (and to be honest I wouldn't know how to fix) is the level of blur on the water and rocks at the bottom. I find it distracting, and that my eyes almost 'fall' off the edge of the photo when they reach it.
