I'm half-expecting Dr. Mordin Solus to come out of the research pod, data board in hand, complaining that the human biologists have terrible handling techniques.
sweet mother of crap, this is amazing. was this fully out of your mind, or did you have any references (photos or from life). the trees reflected in the water alone are enough to blow my mind.
well i glanced at some rive photos to see how the reflections work, but basically since its just a "wobbly mirror", just draw trees as you would see them looking the image bounce from water the ripples and such work with the same principle.
