Thanks to mqtrf from pxleyes, for the pic of the wall, to grafixar from morguefile for the pic of the dino eye, and to ppdigital also from morguefile for the pic of the texture for the foreground. The rest is the result of using the image source. (5 years and 2711 days ago)

The rendering is very nice but there is a little problem with the perspective of the cylinder. The ellipses should be a little flatter at the top and get more rounded as you go further below eye level. You can find several links with google to help, this one will show you the basic perspective: http://www.artyfactory.com/perspective_drawing/perspective_7.htm
As I said the rendering is good, if you could tweak the perspective IMO it would make it even better.

This entry is very nice, original and well done.
You can improove it by adding a better ( more dark and long) shadow at the base of the cylinder.

Wonderful execution, but there's something about it that I can't get to believe it's "inside" the container. Might be the perspective or the non-blurriness of the creature behind water. Good luck

author says:

Thank you for comments. Spaceranger: I worked on the perspective of the top ellipses. Tempora: worked on the shadow, and nbaztec: I think the creature looks it is "inside" the water. Thanks anyway.

Excellent tweaking author! Perspective looks much better and the darkening of the shadow adds more drama! The creature looks fine to me, definitely looks inside the container.

Don't get me wrong author, the creature looks well inside, but not like a solid object inside water, I still can't figure out why? The container looks stunningly superb! Excellent job on the container & the SBS.

Above all just ignore me & enjoy a job well done.

@Spaceranger: Thank you for your tips and all your help!!!!
@nbaztec: Hey, my friend. I had the same problem when I did the filters and the blending for the creature. Nothing wrong with your comment, I really appreciate your time looking at my work.
