Sculpture garden, Cape Ann Museum, Gloucester, Massachusetts, 2009

A heavy rain provides the reflective layer of water on the skin of this bronze sculpture, giving it a sense of energy and natural beauty that nearly brings it to life. Without this glistening texture, it would photograph as just another museum piece. A rainy day can add new dimension of meaning to monuments and statuary.

Wonderful idea, Tim.. Once again, the rain pays a role in stimulating the imagination. The weather brings the picture to life.

Her hand seems ready to catch the drop about to fall into it.
