Hello
I've tried the frist time to create a nice water vortex, which we call in Germany a "Strudel". I rendered different versions of my strudel.
One with blue ocean water, another one with green ocean water. Then I had the idea to bring in more action.
So I placed a small cloud in the center of the vortex to simulate some water vapour in the center.
Both water colours were then blended together in Adobe Poposhop to get the final water color which I desired in the rendering.
Finally I rendered a clay version, to gain more depth and detail (with layer mode multiply) in the final composition.

All different layers are finally blended into my "Strudel" image
The picture is not bad at all, but I always like to improve my pictures if possible.
So ideas, suggetions and constructive hints to make it more realistic are welcome.
