CC Club here!

What a sad picture.

1st impressions are that your horizon is slightly tilted, it needs straightening out. Maybe a little saturation or selective colour to make the blues, yellows and green pop a little more. On the left hand side a crop that doesn't cut off the cross may help the viewers eye as well.

Good placement, well done

That is very cool. I think that the crop to the right needs to be a little looser.
