Are you using the physical sky? It looks a bit washed out. The scene itself could a more interesting angle.

Yeah, i'm using physical sky. But i have turned down the f shutter on the camera and put gamma
Corrects on all the textures. The leafs doesn't look washed out imo but the ground does à bit. Think it's because i have to much bump on it

Yeh I would turn the bump down a tad, it probably looks washed because the ground texture gives off a similar colour to the sky?? like the leaves are very similar shade....I agree with Gen, the angle is a bit off. How big is it going to be mate? something else in there for scale would be good too, like rusty coin or box of matches etc

Just a note Swat...for a realistic looking terrain I wouldnt use those kinds of plants. To me that looks like a salt pan...like where I work in the Pilbara (though the dirt is red but with salt). I would be using something like saltbush or mangroves....even spinifex...etc. Just my 2 cents worth....

Very nice start. Have you thought about using a depth of field foreground element to give it some added depth?
