beautiful, only maybe you should take in an account underwater Currents that would shape the sand around underwater objects. The Box is partly berried in the Sand makes me think it's heavy, but if it is heavy than water should wash sand around it , for example... underwater staff always impresses me. Yury

Good start. If your trying to achieve a photoreal effect, the sand is to shiny. Underwater, materials become somewhat flat and saturated with color thats why some fish look so beautiful.
I suggest looking at national geographics and/or watching documentaries.

Good luck
