The weather turned on us towards the end and we were saturated in the sudden pelting rain.
Somehow, although the rain would surely wash the body paint away, there was still magic in the air. It wasn't cold rain, and as the heat hung in the air, we decided to hang around as well.
Conrad held an umbrella over his camera, as Elena held one over Gail and they took a few more photos under the wet dusky glow of the evening.
