Fore-, mid- and background considerations

I become aware that something is lacking in the composition. I had initially used the clouds as a filler in the lower left-hand side of the painting. One of the requests from the ImagineFX team was to ensure that there was no drastic foreshortening coming from the character’s pose. So, bearing this in mind, I need to find another element to work as a foreground component. Moving the rail into view is a good solution.
