EDITS.....
Thanks to those of you who have posted your critique, from those I've done some edits which include:
removing a stray blade of highlighted grass that was making some of the shadowing look like it had a sharp edge
desaturating the shadows
removing the blue planetary atmosphere effect from the closer planet and replacing it with a paler one to better match colors throughout
tone down the saturation slightly of the overlay clouds to help them blend better into the environment
Altered colours on the rocks in the foreground
Redefined large planets atmosphere
I will post a "develoment" .gif of this later in the week. I took screenshots mom!! 
STEP BY STEP HERE:

Overall Vision Originality Technique ImpactFirst of all, I love this. It's very original, and I love how your landscape is is a bigger part of the piece than the focal point. Many artists would have probably chosen to have the monument and model much closer, but I love how far away it is. It gives off a realistic quality to it. I also think the lighting is very well done, so kudos for that.
The only thing that I might suggest is the coloring. I love how warm this is, but I also like the small points of cooler colors in the upper part of the sky and on the rock in the bottom right hand corner. Those colors may work better if they were subtly echoed in a few other places, maybe in the left part, or somewhere in the hills. Otherwise, the rock in the bottom looks a bit out of place among such warmer colors. If that makes sense at all. (:
Also, I've just noticed that some of the clouds that are in the upper part of the sky look a bit off because their shape and lighting is so different than the ones below them. Perhaps there's a way to adjust that, maybe give them more shadow on top and saturate them a tad more.
Overall though, this is a very successful piece and one of my favorites that I've seen on this website. I saw the small changes you made and I think they work very well. Well done. (:
