I love the use of orange and peach in this. It really draws my attention quickly into all the nice details you have made for us.

Great work mate, I think composition wise you have interesting elements
Also love the shadow part on the left side of the picture, although perhaps too contrast-y here. But it's good to break the flow sometimes
Sometimes it's fun to indicate more instances of shadows like this, to show that there is more of that and plus it creates more of that nice dark-bright-dark-bright kinda staircase like flow. The eye loves that stuff.
One last thing, I'm not sure if the purple/magenta color in the right corner is a good decision. It surely draws the eye, but it confuses it altogether. Why is it purple? Why is there no more purple around? Is this some hallucination I'm experiencing? Should it draw perhaps attention not only with the help of its different hue but perhaps with the help of a very light tone but atmospherically de-saturated? Lots of sand flowing about, plus the air. If the magenta were to change into something else, there would be more harmony in my opinion.

Thanks for your time man! You really looked into this and gave your honest opinion. I appreciate it a lot.Β
You analysed this perfectly. Seems that composition and that shadow went pretty well and yes, with a bit of contrast issue.Β
Purple thing? Huh...my friend told me the other day that it really doesn`t look good and hurts the eye. Maybe she was right. Anyway, the idea behind it was to insert clear fantasy element into pretty much dull and "regular" landscape. I wanted this to be fantasy thing but when I was finishing it I realized it looks too common. So I was thinking to add something to those three stones on the right and I ended up with creating sort of flares coming from above, drawn by the stones as they have some sort of power(?). Haven`t conveyed that idea that good, I know

Hey man, glad my comment was of use to you.
You can put things that are out of place, but it pleases the eye a lot more when that thing is coherent with the environment that it's in. As your friend said, that purple hurt her/his eye - because it's so obvious that it doesn't belong
Anyway, there is a lesson to be learned from every work and it only gives you better wings for your next work, which I'm waiting to see
