Water
Waterfall
An aerated sheet of water falling from a lip into a plunge pool: ropes and surges that stretch as the water accelerates, glassy at the lip and white with foam at the foot, a boiling pool streaking foam outward, mist rising from the base and spray off the edges, lit by the scene sun and sky. Use for cliffs, gardens, hotel atriums and fantasy scenes.
