This is a short animation of this image in the image sharing section:

The animation was a afterthought.
I wanted to feel that place a little more in 3D.
Lighting and water shader settings are different because for shorter render times.
No GI . Only fill lights were used. The scene had already 3 lights so i only placed another one to the left side.
No transparency in water.
I had no animation in my mind at first so there are things that could certainly be improved
like the texture that works only kinda halfway or better lighting-texturing on the island and maybe slower water movement .
I have no plan to revisit it but i certainly want to hear your thoughts about this good or bad :)
The wind sound is a free file from soundbible.com .
Video codec is xvid.
Render time per frame was between 7-14 minutes in general on my i7 2600K .
Very beautiful movement of camera as well as the flights of hang glider and paragliding !!!
Very cool. I agree, nice, smooth motion.
