This is awesome.

Water is pretty weak...should have some shadows or reflection, and the glow at left comes behind the pillars...highlights & shadows should be the same as pillars at right. Having said that, everything else is very well done...good luck.

It would seem to make more sence if there was a shoreline.

the water may be weak and there may be no shoreline but this is one of the best entries i've seen in a long time...high marks from me and ^5
just one thing...give those vines a little shadow

I think now it's ok..

This is wonderful...I love the the lighting and shadows. Just beautiful...I have no improvement ideas...

Fabulous work...way to better when u watch in high resolution...very well done author...100% for this gorgeous work....gl
