Great water view! Nice movements and textures... shadows are also good. If the aim is to imitate nature, I think it is reflected quite well on the opposite side. The use of roots is very successful, especially in the foreground. Plants close to the waves in the middle of the horizon can be pruned a little more, but this is not a negative.Also, the photographic values are used very well.(The left foreground could have been a little brighter) Keep up the good work congratulations!!!

Very well usage of different sources of light at different angles. Although I loved the flow of this beautiful aquarium, the foreground placement line was too parallel. But this is a detail due to the well-executed work of the plants, especially on the left side, the right side could have more layers. The fauna could be in a better position as a school to give a greater final impact on the photo. However the colors of the hardscape and plants harmonized very well. Congratulations aquascaper, a very good job.

I'm very impression the first time I saw this work. very colorful and harmonious. the difference between wood, stone and plants is very clear. Miroring to the left and top gives a broad and detailed impression, the wood detailing makes a natural impression. it's just that there are still small pest snails when photographed.

Magnificent work, with a brutal initial impact, with a great flow of movement and a most striking atmosphere of the contest. It is a work thought to the millimeter and where each element or aspect of it is made to enhance the previous one, the hardscape, the planting, the fish and all well finished with a spectacular photo, perhaps a bit overloaded in terms of colors and contrasts, but it just to generate that artistic charm that the author wanted to convey. On a negative note, the right side of the foreground, very flat and uninteresting within the ensemble since the entire flow of work moves to the left. Another minor thing, but that calls my attention is the use of mosses on the branches, I think they have not been put in dsm and that makes them look unnatural. Congratulations great work.

It's a very beautiful work, it's breathtaking! It is impossible to look away from it. The perspective in the aquarium is perfectly conveyed, I want to look beyond the horizon and look at the sun, which hid behind the stones and illuminates the lawn with its rays. The rays are very clearly conveyed in the composition. The title of the work conveys the atmosphere created in the aquarium. The color scheme of the plants creates a corresponding coziness. This is one of my favorite works. Bravo to the author!

The first impression of this piece is striking. The arrangement, considering the colors of the aquatic plants, is excellent, and the hardscape technique is top- notch. Reflecting the artist's intention in the layout without making it feel artificial is a challenge we know well, and this work has handled it exceptionally well.
