One such dynamic visual effect is the movement of water across the shadow box, simulating rain droplets, waterfall, sheets of water, or aerosolized water such as fog or mist. When combined with various lighting effects, the combined dynamic visual presentation permits a constantly changing visual appearance that can recycle and go on indefinitely.
