Desert Mirage Fish Above Colorful Sand Waves

Create a 16:9 landscape editorial feature that transforms a desert into an impossible ocean of colorful waves. Show one surreal turquoise fish swimming through dry air above dunes that curl into coral, gold, and violet surf. Place its elongated shadow across the foreground sand, making the levitation unmistakable. Keep the distant landscape sparse, with a thin line of blue mountains and a cloudless apricot sky. Render granular sand on the lower slopes and glossy liquid surfaces along the curling crests, blending the two materials convincingly. Use late afternoon side lighting to emphasize the wave contours and the fish's delicate, windblown fins.
