Nice start, one comment though is that you have 2 lines of straight rocks, and it creates a big division, having them a little more spread out/ uneven would provide a more natural look.

I have a picture in my mind of this scape looking more like the 'fire' one that was quite good a while ago.

Basically the rocks were together and just front of centre a little like George's little mountain. Then in the small spaces around the rocks and in the crevices were the smaller plants with the stems coming from behind. the entire outer of the substrate was empty!

The thinking being that the rocks were the wood, the small plants were the embers and the stems to flames. Looked quite good.

As per Aaron though it currently looks a little like an ancient monument with the outer stones laid into position around a centre piece.

Good start though.
