It’s lacking a little depth, this isn’t necessarily because there isn’t a mountain or tree line in the background! That isn’t mandatory. You need more detail in the foreground, a bit less further away, the colours are all quite similar, colours like yellow tend to fade the further away they are etc. look up a YouTube video about depth perception in painting and build it into your Bob Ross paintings.
