Question What can I do better?

I'm really proud of this, but I think I could do better. But how?

The sky was re-gradient-ed because the bacground wasn't tall enough. I left a ridge of light-blue at the hilltops on purpose, because that's how the pic was when I started, but there's little remnants I missed...

Also, it was hard to cut out the hole between the front wheels.

I think the thing that stands out the most, is that the background is a little too blurry for the cars themselves. Also the brightness of the cars is a little more than that of the background. I think it looks good, but the backgorund picture itself is whats causing the problem.

The background still looks a little blurry, however my computer at work is set for lower graphic resolution...so most everything I view at work doesn't look the way it should. However one thing I do see that can be changed is the sky is brighter on the right side (right by the cliff) and looks like another light source. The light shining on the cars and on the hills is coming from the left.

Only thing I'd say that looks a bit funny is the lighting.

The angles for the backround and cars are wrong. [color=skyblue]
