To answer all the questions at once - i was not striving for realism
here.  The dark side does not necessarily has to be completely dark
(moonlight for example) but quite a bit darker would be more realistic of
course.  Scattering media would be overkill since you can simply use
different media for light and dark side.  

The bumps in the ocean are ocean floor structures.  I also tried a
completely opaque water surface but i liked this version more.
