Yeah, what happened to the stones? Or perhaps you don't want them....

I did not loose smaller stones. I removed them leaving only large. Smaller stones look to unnatural as the are not spread but concentrated evenly in circular pattern around lake. So i removed them. In my understanding if i would put the small stones they would be randomly scattered around beach and mostly unseen in the grass.

Also large stones have brown top. Which is the background color that i was unable to eliminate.

:)

yes, picture with so many stones at water look very bad. lake has mud, pebbles, sand on shore not cement haha

Artistico

If you add fractal breakup or similar breakup effects on the layer of small stones as opposed to just using the distribution shader for altitude constraints, it could look a lot more natural, also a slightly bigger fuzzy zone, perhaps a bit of slope constraints to make it follow the differences in topography near the lake's edge.
