  1. The shadow on the door would be much sharper - see the patio overhang for reference). 2. The shadows on the figure should be sharp/contrasted. Again, see the shadows of the 'real' objects in the photo. 3. To my eye, the lighting on the figure doesn't seem to match that of the sun in the photo. This could be because of the lack of shadow definition on the figure. It is an excellent start and, unlike some other composite's that I've seen, at least you got the general direction of the light mostly correct for the figure's shadow casting. The sun is lower than you think. Just look at the angle of the shadow cast onto the wall by the overhang as compared to that of your figure to the shadow on the door.

C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot. C++ makes it harder, but when you do, you blow your whole leg off.
