Here's a WIP for the January Challenge. A new day is beginning, a flight of Eggle Reyes is welcoming the sunrise. I like it, but there's something nagging me and I can't put my finger on it. Any suggestions? Josselin

Very Nice, Great Texture I think maybe its some shadow that's missing, and I think the sun should be bigger? Josselin - what are Eggle Reyes? roch222

the fog on the bottom left looks kinda funny, like there's some weird shadows on it. Also maybe try adding some wake around the pier thingy. Is that a terrain, btw? It looks really nice. Also maybe give the pier a reason to be there? Unless it's purpose is just so people can go out and watch the Eggle Reyes

Eagle Rays? Yep, there's a problem with the mist. The straight edge on the left side is weird. And the diagonal shadows, too. Also, what's the reflecting texture in the round bit?

Looks like they're flying rays (as in manta rays) correct? Needs some shadow around the observation pier, unless it's out of the water...:)

I think the word is Eagle Rays. Nice work and I agree with Zhann, the pier seems to be floating above the water line.

It must be the mist. The pier is supposed to stand above the water, and the reflections on the pier is water as well. Eggle Reyes is the name I gave to a ship I created, because they looked like Eagle Rays. You can see them more clearly if you follow the link. Well, back to the drawing board then ;-) Josselin

I think there should be some sort of backlight/underlight on the Eggle Reyes. This would make them stand out a little more. Lin

Its beautiful, soothing image, The only thing I would add is a figure standing at the end of the pier watching the Eggle Reyes fly by. Catlin

What about a cat? Lin

The problem is; my cat is very big, he won't fit in the picture ;-) Josselin
