The lighting in this picture is extraordinary; the contrast between the dark walls of the cave and the luminous fire in the background is carefully constructed. The horse chosen for the center of attention is also a beautiful color and has an appropriate expression--as much as equines can have human expressions. However, the cave floor doesn't completely match up with the legs of the horse. It almost looks as though the pool of water is floating upwards to a window-like entrance of the cave. And the mane looks a little flat. If a little more shine could be added, it wouldn't look so stuck-on.
Overall, the manip is an exquisite piece. I'm glad I stumbled upon it.

Hmm . . . I'm not actually quite sure. Those types of things tend to stump me as well. Which is why I generally avoid it. ^^ It's just that one, big puddle on the right which is kind of vertical. Perhaps, if you make something like a ridge in front of it and show the puddle in it, that might work. But I'm not sure if that'll work.
The lighting in this picture is really well done, though. So if you figure out how to do it, I'm sure you can do it.
