Inspiration : When I searched the upper reaches of the Rahtawu river, I found an amazing underwater scene between rock cliffs and mranak tree forests. There are some fallen trees and fossils that are submerged for so long. That's where I want to make an aquascape with a view like the upstream of the Rahtawu river.
