      Gute Arbeit πŸ‘
      I focus more clearly on this small bar (hopefully well equipped) than on the Pond. Whenever you can afford this nice project, I'd love to come for a drink πŸ˜„ πŸ˜‰

          He Bryan, do you have any volume under the surface? In the attached image the water was a standard rayletron water. The ocean also has depth and rocks can be seen at the bottom of the ocean (look in the shadow of the wharf) ) there are also 3 fish but not dicernable at this resolution

            More fiddling and refining. Used Raylectron's pool water texture. Adjusted lighting, background and textures.

              Hey bryan heaps better πŸ‘ The materials and "get materials from the cloud" are all good in Raylectron and they all have normals maps for "bump"
              I use raylectron and have a few suggestions. Hope you dont mind but I have posted some suggestions in the attached image.
              Just for the exersise change the back and side walls in sketchup to: Materials/ Bricks cladding and siding/Stone Sandstone Ashlar Light. then give them 12 of bump in raylectron. This will show you the importance of bump. If you experiment with the setting I suggest it will be a quantum leap in you renders and you will not look back.

              Cheers

                  Here's the update with the suggested changes and some other adjustments such as depth of field.

                  I like it.
