I've made many a detour when heading to and from clients, meditating near this statue. Though always in summer, so I've never seen it glisten like this. Most excellent.
ReplyDeleteYou are right - the water makes the whole statue different! Not that I have ever seen this particular one, but I can sort of translate to others, just looking at the colour of the metal!
ReplyDeleteAnd I like the angle you have chosen, too!
wonderufl...it's been too long since i've been there!
