the lighting on the boy and the shadow can do some work there. the lighting on plank is not correct as well, plank/ w/e it is lol. Right now it looks like there is a spotlight kept on top of boy to bring him in picture. here's an activity.
Go near a window of your house, and keep your hand on the window sill. Notice how the shadow is darker and sharper near the hand, but as you go farther, it becomes dull, blurry and low opacity. The shadow fades out when there is no more hand to obstruct the light.
Whats happening in the pic is that the shadow is the same all around boy's behind. It fades out realyl far away from the boy, than it should actually. And make it sharper newar his butt (whoops)
Another thing is, your lighting sense in this one is wrong. Look at the boy, doesnt the shadow look wrongly drawn? Ask why? well, according to the pic, the light is falling on the boy from behind, and the shadow is also going behind. Thats practically impossible, light and shadow are opposites. They cant fall on the same sides.
One more thing, the color of explosion or w/e it is, looks weird with the environment, Do some color adjustments and coloring to make sure the mood is set, that supports your actual subjects. I tell you why it is like that, see the lighting on the trees? its falling from the right side, from a light source which is not in picture, and not actually from the explosion/wildfire. Thats another impossible thing, if the wildfire/explosion is so near the trees, then the light emitted by it will cover the trees and not another light from a distant unrecognizable source.
Make the mountains darker and give them an orange tone, the sky should be a bit darker.
Right now my eyes are wavering all over the picture, because there are so many bright areas. Like, i will see the wildfire, then my eyes will go up to the sky, then the mountains, the boy will come at last, but again the next instant my eyes are wavering to the sky. Because thats the brightest part and its near one of the powerpoint. You gave sky a bit of more unneeded space than it usually needs, that is why it is overpowering your composition.
Hope that helps and clears the doubts, Like the composition, and the text. good job, make sure you improve. I gave you some minor tips, the ones that i saw wrong
