Is it me or or we seeing double reflections here?

Certainly the planet seems to be reflected twice; first, just behind the
jetty (half-hidden by leaves) and then midway between that reflection and
the planet itself. The craft also seems to be reflected twice; first, where
I'd expect it and then just in front of the craft itself but scaled down.

On the positive side, I like the atmosphere.

John

BTW Move the jetty or the background trees; it looks as if the tree
reflection is growing out of the jetty upright.

The normal-pattern on the lake is too large. What you
see are multiple reflections due to several "waves".

Perhaps that should be changed, I guess "waves" or "ripples"
are being used. A nice bozo-turbulenced normal
might be better.

Regards,
Tim

Aside from the odd reflections - looking much better

Yes, the wet stuff is much better now. I agree with Tim's suggestion
that the double reflections could be due to a large normal.

Perhaps if the phase of the "ringed-one" were increased you could use
its light to explain the apparant (sp?) brightness of the water's
surface? On second thoughts - scrubb that idea, it would spoil the
scene.

Hey, thanks for the tips here, currently experimenting with bozo for the
water, previously I'd carelessly copied some other water texture that used
a bumps normal pattern, so it shouldn't be too tricky to fix the double
reflections.

I'll also move the jetty slightly to avoid the reflections 'growing' out of
it, good spot!

I also should mention that I used the newly released POVTree to create the
meshes for the background trees in this version (previously I used the PD
Tree macro), so thanks to Gena Obukhov for the timely release, I think it
much improved the image. Coincidentally I'd already used TOMTREE to create
the foreground trees.

Cheers
