Yes, this is much better indeed. The water too is looking better, although I 
miss the breaking of the waves against the island (That's another kettle of 
fish entirely).
Remains the texture of the island where the triangulation of the 
height_field is a bit too visible I guess. I would also play a bit with the 
slope/altitude parameter to get a more interesting effect.
Concerning the cloud, consider Nemesis' answer.
