A hyper-realistic scene of the White Sands desert in New Mexico at dusk, featuring cool, purplish-hued sand ripples with an iridescent glow. The view captures a broader expanse of the desert, with the sand ripples stretching out into the distance. Emerging from the sand is a colossal sandworm, its immense size dominating the landscape. Atop the sandworm, a man with wild green Einstein-like hair, pale skin, and wearing a black and white striped suit is holding onto the reins as he rides the massive creature. His expression is one of wild exhilaration, matching the surreal and dramatic atmosphere of the scene. The sky transitions from soft oranges and pinks to deeper purples and blues as night approaches, adding to the eerie and otherworldly mood. Use HDR lighting to enhance contrast between light and shadow, with a slight atmospheric haze near the horizon for added depth.
