This nude art photograph is a black and white of woman crouching in a shower of falling water, the shadow of palm fronds on the wall behind her. She is centered and tightly cropped in the monochrome design. Streams of liquid drip down her face and body. The light catches drops of water as they speed down around her. Some droplets are crisply frozen, others are blurred with motion. Tiny ripples form in the pools of water on the pavement where new drops make their impact.

Her dark hair is slicked back. Under her, pavement glistens in the pool of runoff. The grid of seams in the tile behind her and the concrete under her add structure to the design.

Her body is compact and positioned low. Her right hand rests on the ground, as does both of her knees. Her left arm extends at a diagonal angle to her side. Her head is tilted down and to this same direction. It is not clear if her eyes are closed or if she is gazing at the ground. In either case, she seems absorbed in the sensations of the moment.

The darkest portions of this nude art photograph are the shadows on her front and her hair. These areas are aligned in the center of the image, along with the darkest portions of frond shadows above her head. The lightest portions are the lit areas on wall behind her and the reflected sky in the wet pavement under her.
