Nice first effort. Good window frame.
Here are some tips:

- Do not use fully saturated colors. The wall looks a bit too orange and the green
grass is, well, a bit too green. If your pic starts to look like a cartoon, that's
the sign that you have to lower the saturation (it's pretty simple if you're using
HBS).

- Forget finish ambient, or make it as low as possible. Either use radiosity or a
shadowless fading light_source (placed at the same location of the camera).

- Add a bit of specular to every material. For the wood something like 0.1-0.3 should
be good.

- Remember that normals add to the overall realism of the scene. Get used to them.

- Dirt it up! Add a partially transparent layer of dirt to your textures.

- Clutter. Those block are placed with a rule ;)

- Use area lights.

- Put glass panels on your window to repair from wind ;)

Question: is this a present for you chat friend? :-D
