To start with: your use of colours is amazing. I know how the real pictur looks like, and you made a really good version of it! I love how the colours fade out and mix up with each other. The grass and the birds in the sky look very real, and the shadow (and the light!) on the stairs is perfect. The only thing you may work on, it the perspective. Somewhere above the birds you messed it up, maybe you could look at that. Also the cracks in the stairs look a bit too big for the steps, maybe you could make those lines a little thinner.
At last: I don't think you used layers, you should do that next time to get rid of the white areas between the grass and the sea, the air and the stairs, and the air and the sea.
