Some interesting perspectives. To me, it looks like the foliage of the "higher" trees gives it a distant view, as opposed to the more full foliage of the "front" trees. The trunk thickness seems to "thin" as you go back. It looks like a wind is blowing from left to right at a pretty good clip. I find it to be a pleasant mountain scene.

This composition reminds me of the Blue Ridge mountains. I would like to see a little more ground covering, various mosses. It appears to be thyme that cascades down, and I use that myself.

Maybe fewer trees could improve the design, but I don't know I would recommend going that way.

I've got to try and get the time to do a virtual. Don't see a whole lot of these rock plantings.
