Try displacement rather than a normal map for your water

thanks for the tip.
i have rendered a new version from a higher view.
this time i used a ocean modifier for the watermesh,and added some kind of seagrass with the new AO shader to the ground.
The ocean modifier is a better idea but the scale is way off. Those sharks look tiny all of a sudden.
Also I prefer the previous image by far. The The blue of the water, the visibility of the sharks, the sign, the trees, the sky… The composition is much more interesting.
yes i agree,the scale looks somehow different.the funny thing is that i doesent changed the scale from the sharks or the sign or the ground.the only main change was the ocean modifier for the mesh and a different camera angle.oh and a slight rotation from the hdri for better sun reflections.
yeah i like the first render more too.
