Description
This final is the result of experimenting with placing a large mossy rock in the foreground of the river; a fish jumping out of the water - both surrounded by a vortex shader. Neither of those two tests yielded a pleasing point of interest. I proceeded to pursue a makeover.
Ulco offered a very nice grouping of rocks in rough waters file to try. I placed this additional population of fake stones in the chain hoping it would make an improvement; but, the river looked too busy, especially since either side is heavily populated with vegetation.
I decided to revert to the original river and adjust the two additional suns and enviro-light settings by reducing their strengths. This made a much better scene since now the vegetation appears less saturated; and overall, better contrasts.
Clip files used for the fake stones are from dandelO; and, vegetation models are by Walli.

Superb !
This version is oh so nice. Wish I owned that old shack on the right and about 40 acres (LOL).
One more excellent render. Love the cabin, perfect spot. Very nice looking veggies as well. Good DOF and the sunset is perfect with the surrounding dusk on either side.
Very convincing! The shack adds a wonderful touch.
