The water is really good in this, especially where it falls away to the left, and the rocks are convincing. Less convinced by trees and sky; the tones are too close together - try to indicate clumps of leaves with light and dark, and bring in some stronger linear touches for trunks and branches: give the leaf forms a structure to hang on to. The sky could do with some variation in brush work, ie it's a bit horizontal in appearance. Distant hills are well done.

You have captured a sense of space and place here. I can smell that fresh air, and the figure gives it all scale. Great
