Ahh that's why there's smoke! I see. Really excellent image! I love the choppy sea and the clouds which look as if there's a squall in the distance.

The ocean is perfect as always, and what I like the most he ae all shadows here and there on the sails. Terrific one, Ken!
Excellent Ken, another superb image masterly done!
Nice work... great realism
Utterly wonderful, thankyou for sharing.
GREAT.....
beautyful view & scene
Love those choppy waves and the sky is perfect. The only negative--and it is a very small one--is that the water around the whale would be much bloodier in real life than seen here. Having pointed that out, though, I have to say that this is definitely one of your best sea renders. Fine work!
An excellent render....I think Jeremy's right about the blood, but besides that it's top notch....
Very nice scene. Great ship, lighting and sky! Excellent render.
OK!!!!! This is one special work of art here I like the detail in this one much. This picture calls out for a series based on this subject materail. Bravo and hats off to ya for this one.
Gorgeous! Wonderful water and lighting. Excellent work!!
Great scene Ken. The extra details really add to the render, and the smoke draws you in to take a closer look.
Brilliant work, Ken!!
A horrible practise...but outstanding image.
