In "best pattern for sea animation?" in povray.general, I suggested the
wrinkles pattern. Then I went and actually tried it out to see how it worked
on its own as water (I don't think I've actually seen it in a
straightforward way as a water surface before). This is the result.

It's a little too rounded, but otherwise looks pretty good, I think.
Animating it doesn't look too realistic since the waves move too smoothly.

Aside from that big lump in the front centre, I think it's quite good. 
Very choppy-looking. This would be a cool render with a big sailing ship 
off in the distance.

Would you mind sharing your water texture?

This is the water object, it's nothing special:

isosurface {
 function {
  y - f_wrinkles(x/3, 0, z/3)
 }
 contained_by {
  box {
   <-1000,0,-1000>, <1000,1,1000>
  }
 }

 max_gradient 1.7
 accuracy .0001

 texture {
  pigment {
   rgb .3
  }
  finish {
   reflection .8
   specular .7
   roughness .07
  }
 }
}

IMHo it might be nicer if avaraged with waves pattern.

How do You suggest to animate it?

You can always give it a shot. =)

> How do You suggest to animate it?

For a cyclic animation:

#declare animtime = 5; // seconds in animation
#declare translateamnt = animtime * .4; // how much to translate the wrinkle
texture by
#declare transamnt = translateamnt * .2; // how much of that translation is
used to make the beginning match the end by interpolation

isosurface {
 function {
  #if (clock * translateamnt >= transamnt)
   y - f_wrinkles(x/3, clock * translateamnt + 50, z/3)
  #else
   #declare amnt = clock * translateamnt / transamnt;
   y - amnt * f_wrinkles(x/3, clock * translateamnt + 50, z/3) - (1 - amnt)
* f_wrinkles(x/3, (1+clock) * translateamnt + 50, z/3)
  #end
 }
...

I agree that it needs to be averaged with another pattern.

Nice!
With a different texture (and limited in the space) it colud seem crumpled
paper too.
