Description
Strange pov: I wanted to show all elements of the planet, coz they're mine! Including the water this time!
Still playing with displacements, including this time using a bitmap for the wet sandbar displacement.

amazing view .. wonderful scene - details - surfaces .. excellent done !
You get a V for this one.. Really nice picture.. Excellent.. Nice "floor mat" texture for the sand bars.. :O)
I like youe colors but I wood have made thw water lighter bule I think other than that I like this in a strange sort of way
Sand bars are really neat and I like sutle effect of the variances of the sand. Only concern unless it is intential is that the bars are really straight. In real life, I not sure they will be all that striaght.
He Eoin, interesting surfaces. I think the displacement is a bit too strong for a sandbar. Looks a bit too rough to me, less is more here. The waves around the sandbar are not irregular enough for a naturally touch. As you wrote, you are still experimenting with displ. mapping. Hope to see more of your pictures regarding this method! My 2cents ...
Wonderful sandbars, land textures... excellent!
Very good lighting on this one!
Nice effect and hight altitude shot !
Excellent details down there, well done!
I could never come up with something like this so i have deep respect for those who try. I think once your sand is a bit more wavy you'll have a real winner on your hands. Great so far :)
This image is breathtaking...excellent job...
Not having used "Bitmaps" yet,I don't know how you achieved this effect...wow!...great bit of experimentation!!.....more please!!
Fantasy becomes reality putting aside considerations of error as a limiting factor. Yes, I would like to be there and fly over to see this possible landing site for my Cessna Staionaire 206 on floats.
Stunning work! This is a very beautiful view! I think a lot of render-hours... V
Cool FX. Really wonderful sandbars... only I 'd prefer for a more closer look :-)
Fantastic POV and shot of the sandbars!!
Looks cool. Only thing I would say is to make the breaking waves (or sandbar ripples - whatever) less uniform and more random.
This is well done, and very interesting!
I think this is one of ur best. Very beautifully a nd creatively done
