See the opening in the foreground vegetation? That's for you to step in and enjoy the coolness of the shade and the warmth of the water. :-)

Rendered in Vue, as usual. Minor post-work in PS, just some minor corrections and some glow here and there. In Vue I took the time to get the sand and shore exactly like I wanted them. Lots of fiddling in the material editor. :)

It's been ages since my last tropical island. I really like to make islands, with the sand and water and vegetation. Have to do more. :)
