The first thing I noticed (after a while of looking, mind you) was the hoof print. Assuming horsie did not apparate, there should be a hoof print in the sand between where his two grounded hooves are. Also, a bit of sand perhaps flying off of the front right?

I think what it might be is that the horse is in a sort of static pose. In artwork that phase of the trot is one of the least dynamic, because the straight vertical lines of the horse's legs break up the movement and make it look stiff. Just something I noticed. *shrug* Also, with the text, you might want to move it down ever so slightly so that it's all on the water - right now it just doesn't flow as well because the tip of it is on the mountains.

Thank you so much. I think you might be right. I definitely agree with you. All I know is that half way through this I knew it was gonna be a fail. Either the stock, or just my crappy skills, somehow, haha. So I guess it's not worth a re-do. However I appreciate your keen eye, thank you!

It wasn't your crappy skills. Because you don't have any crappy skills. You only have amazing skills. Seriously the blending is amazing and everything looks unified, like it's one photo, it's just the composition could be better. ^^
