Legend Of The Four Dragon
A very long time ago, when there was no water in the country, people were starving and a great drought had spread across the land. The four dragons are known as Long Dragon, the Yellow Dragon, the Black Dragon, and the Pearl Dragon. They watched in horror as the people and animals died from starvation and thirst..
The dragons left their sea and visited the Jade Emperor in his heavenly abode. They told him about what was happening on Earth and asked him to help the people, animals, and plants to survive.
The Jade Emperor agreed and promised to send rain but being very busy he forgot and broke his promise.
The four dragons were frustrated when they noticed that ten days had passed without rain. People were dying of starvation, but the Jade Emperor neglected the situation on Earth. So, the four dragons decided they couldn't stand by and watch this misery any longer, so they used their giant bodies to capture great masses of water from the sea, taking it upon themselves to make it rain.
People were relieved and prayed to the Jade Emperor thanking him for the rain that had saved their lives. The Sea God, on the other hand, was not happy that so much of his water had vanished, and he went to the Jade Emperor and complained. He made it very clear the four dragons had provided humans with water.
The Jade Emperor was angry when he learned that the four dragons had disobeyed him and punished them for their insubordination.
He ordered the Mountain God to trap the four dragons and lock them up in four different mountains. The Mountain God used his magic to summon four mountains, and the four dragons were imprisoned, but that didn't stop them from doing what they wanted.
Each time a dragon was trapped, a new river sprung from the mountain. The Yellow dragon created the Yellow River, the Long Dragon the Yangtze River, the Black dragon the Black River and the Pearl dragon was responsible for the creation of the Pearl River. The four rivers flowed from west to east and north to south, and the four dragons were happy knowing the people of China would never lack water again.
I experienced so many problems with this render. Who would have thought that with the camera pov that I wanted, the dragon would have to be so big. The dragon is way bigger than the Chinese junk fishing boat. I had to position the water spray and rainbow close to the boat in order to match it with the dragon pose and , wow, was that a task! A simple, silly image that wasn't really worth the pain it caused...but I still enoughed the challenge!

That first pic gives you a sense of first person shooter like feel as if you're in the plane cockpit or in a simulator which is nice as a point of view.
Whoosh! imagine that sea serpent dragon appearing in the form of a rainbow in front of you. You might've had the rainbow idea as water droplets
reflected the sunlight in some way. Very effective way of a dynamic render. Wish you best with this one.

Mon, Feb 26, 2024Thanks drjivago. Many people include rainbows in their pictures incorrectly. You'll only see a rainbow when the suns behind you.

Mon, Feb 26, 2024Very true and btw I always wondered why I was able to see the rainbow in the distance, but when I changed my position, either it became vague or completely disappeared : D
The higher the sun is in the sky, the smaller the arch of the rainbow above the horizon. If the sun is more than 42 degrees above the horizon, no rainbow will be visible. So, the main ingredients to see a rainbow are the following: You need to be standing with the sun to your back and the rain in front of you. The sun needs to be behind the viewer. The sun needs to be low in the sky, at an angle of less than 42 above the horizon. The lower the sun in the sky the more of an arc of a rainbow the viewer will see. Rain, fog or some other source of water droplets must be in front of the viewer (some details to complement your info).
