#160Caustics-Modulated Mix

A living net of pool-floor caustics used as a blend mask between two scenes. Scene A is a dark, calm deep-water gradient; scene B is a vivid ribbon of cyan-to-gold shimmer. A two-octave Worley ridge draws the wandering bright filaments of light refracted through a wavy surface, and only where those filaments burn brightest does scene B bleed through — so the vivid colour swims across the dark like caustics on a tiled bottom, thickening and thinning as the net breathes. Hover to drag the whole web toward the cursor, scroll to spin it, and press to flood the reveal so B washes through the whole pool.
