Really great Seth!
I'd limit the reflectivity to the lower portion of the scene though to get rid of the white spots at the middle/top end, but still, a really amazing, convincing job!

Those white spots are mainly due to GI quality issues rather than the specularity being used.

Outstanding work here Franck. Great gritty soil and nice transparent water. The dramatic lighting is really effective.
415 hours and still some atmospheric grain :P *lol*
You mentioned raytracing being responsible for rendertime, you mean raytraced shadows in the rendertab or raytraced atmosphere?
If it's the latter I have my doubt whether it is necessary to use it or not, probably cuts rendertime to about 100 hours :)

Seth

it's raytraced atmo... and yeah it wasn't necessary ;) but i didn't know it before i tried on this one !!!
without the render would have been almost 200 hours shorter (^^)'
thanks T-U

This is beautiful work.  Very nicely done.  After staring at for awhile, I thought it is too shiny.  But, after continuing to look it over, I believe it's actually perfect for what you are doing.  Looks real and amazing.
So this is Disney World.  Can we live here?
