it's not a bad start, but consider the following 
the water, particularly in the forground is too glossy. it looks more like liquid mercury.
the margin of snow and water is a very dynamic thing in nature. i'd suggest surfing some photo sites or looking through some nature magazines to get a feel for what this should look like.
sky variance is usually most pronounced near the horizon.
the snowfield has an overly 'blocky' feeling.
the trees feel too artificial - perhaps 'mess them up' a bit and add some more accesory flora or other features.

Well, now that we have an "expert" opinion from the guy at National Geographic... I personally see nothing wrong with this wall. The only thing I think would look cool is the Aurora's in the sky... and maybe the stars brightened and more added. But it is a great wall regardless if you change it or not. I downloaded it. I like it just as it is. Good work!

I love it. I actually like looking at my desktop... almost mesmorized by it. Almost makes me want to reach out and touch it. Very nice work!
