Description
The last of Winter's snow melts away into the warm waters of the Little Colorado giving way to the growth of blue/green algae. World-wide, this simple plant is one of the largest producers of oxygen.
The terrain is the 4097 'The Sleeper' available at http://www.imaginature.us . The sky, surfaces and water work are a blend of settings by choronr and Buzzzzz.
Thank for visiting; and for your suggestions for improvement!

Fantastic water-effect, POV, surface, light and mood!

Wonderful work bob, most impressive water!
Agree with above: magnificent!
Fantastic realistic water !!!
Amazing water. Very well done.
Very nice, captures some of the blue/green tint the Little Colorado picks up in its water ( along with minerals and a bit of a smell ) on its way to meet the Colorado river in the Grand Canyon. Have not seen it where your terrain is, where it meets up it is narrow and has very mild rapids which can be body surfed on one's back with a life-jacket on your bottom to avoid some rocks bumping too hard. Recommended "Great Fun" if you every get the chance! Very nice render!
Very nice scene. Water is terrific.
Incredible work!! One vote, for sure!
No suggestions for improvement from me Bob.You have just done it again! Brilliant realism!
The total is awhsome. If you had the time, the water appears to be a different resolution than the distant shore and mountains. The shore has haze giving the feel of a greater distance, where as the water meeting the shore has no haze.
Marvelous work Bob!
Completely love the water, extremely realistic froth and refraction!!! Just enough wave at the right size and roughness
Having read through all the comments, I have to say this is a beautiful render. You've created a stunning photograph even though it's Terragen. This is positively beautiful and truely one of the best I've had the pleasure to view today. Sometimes the simplest makes the most gorgeous pictures. This is one of them!!!!
Excellent Bob V. I like how you fixed that little problem. Email this to Mother Nature so she will know what to do... Into my WIHD folder..

I have to say, this is excellent. I've worked with Terragen for a while and am not that bad at it...this makes mine look like stick figures. This is wonderful!
