I'm glad you enjoy :)

I don't mind at all. I agree my version is greenish in the shadows, I prefer
yours though coulds are pinky now :)

Oh well it's Moray default 1.9! I never had a look at this setting

I didn't want to have neither burned whites nor dark paint, maybe I overdid
it
Thank you for your tips :-)

Nice reference. Thanks!
>LOL I love these numerous "final" versions
Here's the latest "final" version, after 83 hours of render time.
I originally had the idea to have the view be from a ship, and include some of the
ship's deck,
railing, rigging, etc. in the view, but I grew tired of the image before I completed
it. Now, I
revisit it every now and then to play around, usually when I don't have anything else
I'd rather
work on.
I hope you like it!
Kyle

Yes it's nice
Your rocks look like pillow lava, though, is it a granite pattern? Why not
wrinkles?

Thanks!
Here's the code for the island and the water. The island could use some work. Maybe
I'll work on
it for my next "final" version.
