Description Hmm.. this started out having a beach in the foreground. I removed it though, because the lighting made the textures look weird. And I fell in love with the lighting. :/ Well, beach is gone, however it's still the main texture for underwater. This is what makes the water look a bit "muddy". It's actually clear, low water with sand under it. I like the effect, however it might look good with blue water. Whaddya think?
Any suggestions, comments, favs much appreciated.

I think this is my favorite of all of your works. I love the color brown, and you have many shades of it in this shot alone. This is one excellent image, it is actually a joy to view.

Your lighting is terrific, and the water, well, yep, its muddy alright - though not a bad thing, I think though that because I feel so far away from land, it should be quite so shallow.

Those textures look quite good for this scene too - the colours realy warn the scene up nicely, well done

This is an incredibly well-done scene! The clouds, rays, water, land...all perfect! I wouldn't change ANYTHING, after all, why mess with perfection?!
definately + FAV

Well, i love the clouds and the light in this. The sky looks to be being pulled apart or sumthing and light is simply pretty.

The water is good the color it is, since it fits the rest of the scene. If you change the color you might have to change the sky as well, otherwise it'd be out of place.

For some odd fucking reason my computer wont let me view this at full. Which is how i normally do, so i cant say whether or no the textures are well done. But i dont think it really matters if you're going for that muddy look, there wont be much color to it anyways.

All in all, very pretty and seemingly well done. High Five.

land water and atmo are great !!! the colors are wonderful, the effect on the water looks very good !! the rays are splendid ... all those things make a great picture ... special feeling ... !! great job !!
Try with another camera angle and position closer to the land it could be great ! )

My only concern is the clouds, something about the trailing edge(away from the sun) being illuminated, Did you put 3D clouds on? I'm not sure if it would change that or not. And the sky seems to be a little dark and not blue enough for the sun location. (I am so picky on skys aren't I? Sorry)

The water is cool, I'll agree that the effect of the submerged beach is quite nice. The terrain is cool too (I have to say that, it reminds me of the seward alaska area, it's close, but the shades are off and it's not overcast (Sunny days and seward don't happen often))

Good work.

I love it. The water is great. It blends with textures perfectly. And the rays are great also. I think the color of the clouds really set the rest off. Very nice work.

Looks ok now but you might get better contrast using blue water.

I really like the lighting in this one .. its very well done .. especially how some of it is lit and other parts not. The texturing on the land is done very well also.

The water looks really muddy .. which fits the texturing of the land.

Overall a very good render here mate ..

Keep up the great work

I like the rays, but 'em seems to float on top of the image. Water is muddy, but i like the bright area in it. Athmoshere is kinda good anyway.

Landscape looks great!!
