This is one of the best landscape speed paintings I've ever seen. First of all it's very solid, you're not taking the easy part and just painting a whole lot of mist. There are things behind that mist and the clouds, and as far as I can see, about 4/5 of the painting were made by using multiple layers. I know it's a bit trivial to talk about that kind of basics but I have in mind that the painting was made in just one hour.
To be honest, it's not exactly the most original landsacpe of all times but I like the approach you took. In my opinion you took the most out of "tropical misty mountains on the beach" you possibly could in one hour.
That would be all when it comes to general thoughts. I have some concerns about some of the details. My english isn't able to point all of them out but I'll try my best to catch at least some.
The little shred of the cloud in the center stands out a bit too much for my taste.
The second bright cliff on the left lacks a bit of work (it looks like unfinished).
Some of the clouds at the very top are a bit unnatural.
I'm not trying to question your painting skills but rather make a point that there is still an opportunity for you to improve and it looks like you did improve based on the most recent works you've done.

Great job overall. This painting had so much impact on me that I couldn't resist sharing my thoughts about it even though it was made about 4 years ago. I hope you take my critique in a positive way. Sorry for some language slip-ups if there were any. I'm doing my best to improve my english.
