Good to see the finished painting, and well done. Adding the figures was a master stroke. It's changed the whole aspect of the painting. It's no longer merely a landscape, now it has narrative - a little story about a man, his horse and his dog. It's amazing the difference the figures have made. All good. The atmospheric perspective is working really well and gives the painting great depth. The warm colours in the foreground and around the figures work well, and there's absolutely no doubt where the focal area is.
Well done.
