I really like how you've putten so much dimension to this one - the underwaterness, and the creatures surrounding the water like that. Wow!

Another fabulous thing about these is how the overall color and even the light is differentiated between the three environments.

Plus, manatee! underwater, even! whoooo

I love all three of your biodiversity posters, but this one is by far my favorite. Between all the shades of green and those beautiful birds, that crocodile and slightly-hidden manatee, this is just absolutely stunning. Admittedly, I do think there's something a little off-putting about a humanoid figure wearing the skin of an animal (and so well!), but the picture really wouldn't be complete without it.

Very, very nice work. I love it! :D
