I can almost feel the water in The Great Journey by *maui-dolphin. The light reflections are perfect. (Suggested by ~Gordorca and Featured by `Aeires)

This is so udderly fantastic that I make a "whoop" sound out loud!! I am drawn so drawn to this...the smooth dark water. So cold as it flows past my hide. I love this more than I can say. I weep.

Nice work! I really love the distortion of the underwater to the above water.. Maybe a little to much smudging on the whales and not enough blending... Keep up the good work......
