Water dragon appearing as a visual perception... a pareidolia appearing with an aerial photo... Water element bringing life as conduit with chi... it breathes with Earth and the rhythms of the universe…
"This is one of the most easily recognized mythical beasts. It is also a pervasive symbol in a variety of cultures, giving rise to many interpretations about exactly what a dragon is, what it represents, and how it behaves. It can be associated with good luck, fortune and wisdom, or with bad luck, elemental evil and heresy. Carl Jung would have called the dragon a symbol of the universal unconscious, since so many cultures have myths associated with a dragon, or dragon like beasts.
The dragon is for Carl G. Jung the personification of Sulphur and is by far the male element. Since the dragon is said to impregnate himself by swallowing his tail, then the tail is the male organ and the mouth is the female organ. The winged dragon represents personal obstacles that must be overcome to insure a more-perfect being; thus, leading to the saying: “You conquer the dragon or he will conquer you.” We see that Jung did, certainly, inspire awareness of the connections between modern psychology and ancient spiritual practice. Some credit the Chinese as the inventors of dragon. The origins of dragon lore are a matter of some debate. It is known that at least as far back as 300 BCE, some bones of prehistoric animals were labeled as coming from dragons. In Christianity the dragon is generally a symbol of evil, a demon or the devil. The most famous Christian legend is that of St. George slaying the dragon.
Much of dragon lore tells us that dragons were loathsome beasts and evil enemies to humankind. But dragons were born of a time other than men, a time of chaos, creation out of destruction. The dragon is a fabulous and universal symbolic figure found in most cultures "throughout] the world.
Symbology of the dragon:
Gnostics: “The way through all things.”
Alchemy: “A winged dragon – the volatile elements; without wings – the fixed elements.”
Guardian of the ‘Flaming Pearl” symbol of spiritual perfection and powerful amulet of luck.
Chinese: “The spirit of the way”‘ bringing eternal change.
In Scripture the term dragon refers to any great monster, whether of the land or sea, usually to some kind of serpent or reptile, sometimes to land serpents of a powerful and deadly kind. It is also applied metaphorically to Satan.”…

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannonsville_Reservoir
The Cannonsville Reservoir is a reservoir in the New York City water supply system in Delaware County, New York. It was formed by construction of the Cannonsville Dam on its west end,[2] which empounded over half of the West Branch of the Delaware River. Lying on the western part of the Delaware Watershed, it is the westernmost of New York City's reservoirs. It was placed in service in 1964, and is the most recently constructed New York City-owned reservoir.
The town of Cannonsvile was destroyed to make room for the reservoir, which lies within the towns of Tompkins and Deposit.
Its 455 square miles (1,180 km2) drainage basin is the largest of all of the NYC reservoirs. Capacity is 95.7 billion US gallons (362,000,000 m3). Water from the reservoir flows into the 44-mile (71 km) West Delaware Tunnel in Tompkins, New York. Then it flows through the aqueduct[which?] into the Rondout Reservoir, before joining the 85-mile (137 km) Delaware Aqueduct, which provides New York City with about 50% of its drinking water.
The Delaware Aqueduct then crosses beneath the Hudson River and continues on to the West Branch Reservoir in Putnam County, New York, then the Kensico Reservoir in Westchester County, both north of the City. It then continues further south to the Hillview Reservoir in Yonkers, where it joins the flows of the Catskill and New Croton aqueducts for distribution through the New York City tunnel system.
The Cannonsville Dam is being considered as a site for a 14.08MW hydroelectric generating station.

tale/tail with Water dragon
when riding a Water Dragon's tale/tail (Rock Rift site) remain with balance atop the tale/tail... and avoid the end of the tail where one may receive a powerful whip sending one, or more into a flying tail spin for miles... or a tale/tail pulled out from under leaving one, or more stuck with the muck...
green dot with right/Rock Rift
Rock Rift was a hamlet in Delaware County, New York. It was located southwest of Walton on the bank of the West Branch Delaware River.
Rock Rift was a hamlet taken by eminent domain by New York City to build the Cannonsville Reservoir. There is a hiking trail that goes through the former settlement constructed and maintained by the Finger Lakes Trail Conference (FLTC). Crumbling pavement from portions of old NYS Route 10 descend into the waters of the reservoir. Some bluestone front steps to homes and businesses remain as the heart of the village was mostly located above the current waterline of Cannonsville Reservoir. The reservoir dams a portion of the West Branch of the Delaware River and provides potable water for New York City.

"...The Pepacton Reservoir lies 12 miles (19 km) south of the village of Delhi and is 101 miles (163 km) northwest of New York City. It is narrow and winding, some 15 miles (24 km) long and about 0.7 miles (1.1 km) across at its widest point. The reservoir is over 160 feet (49 m) deep at its maximum point and contains 430,256 acre feet (530,713,000 m3) of water at full capacity. This makes it The City water system' largest reservoir by volume.
Pepacton Reservoir supplies New York City with nearly 25% of its drinking water. Its water empties into the 25.5-mile (41.0 km) East Delaware Tunnel near the former site of Pepacton, then flows through the aqueduct into the Rondout Reservoir, which empties into the 85-mile (137 km) Delaware Aqueduct. Flow is then routed under the Hudson into the West Branch Reservoir in Putnam County, New York, then on to the Kensico Reservoir in Westchester County just north of The Bronx. From there the aqueduct continues on to Hillview Reservoir, from which it is distributed by tunnel to users in the City.
Peapackton is a Lenape Native American term meaning "marriage of the waters". The reservoir lies on land New York City purchased in the valley in 1942, and led to the displacement of 974 people, destruction of four towns (Arena, Pepacton, Shavertown and Union Grove), and submersion of nearly one-quarter of the Delaware and Northern Railroad in the process. The dam, located at Downsville, was finished in 1954, and the flooding was completed in 1955.
The reservoir is a significant factor in the local economy of Downsville, New York, as thousands of tourists travel to Downsville each year to fish for trout. No motor boats are allowed on the reservoir."...
