The festive harbor scene shows boats and a crowd on shore marveling at the mythical creature, with glowing lights reflecting on the water to create a magical, celebratory mood.

Fantastic style! I adore the light and reflections on the water, and the lovely soft sunset colours complement the iridescent scales of the subject so wonderfully. Very well done! 😊 🩶🩶
