How can I make this image better? I mean the underwater effect. Thanks

Hmm, I like it so far. Maybe add some more texture to the sand and have some rocks dispersed all over the ocean bed. The plants in the background don't look to realistic, but do any of the bryce vegitation look realistic? I mean texture-wise? Hmm, maybe try checking out 3D Cafe (3dcafe.com) and see what kind of plants they have there. Those plants would be more realistic. Adam

looks good to me, too. depth in the distance looks very good. in this size i cant see wether you've added a "gel" to the light or not. if not, it would improve the picture a lot(you know this caustic reflections on the ground if the sun shines through the water) goood work, keep designing!

Maybe add some caustic lighting, here's a link to a great tutorial: http://visualmagic.awn.com/archive/archive06.html Ken

Thank you People! I make this pic from that tutorial, I put a 2D plane over the scene, with a custic texture and sun light.
