 I noticed raindrops bouncing off of my deck railing & thought- DPC!
Challenge #1- Keeping my camera dry in a downpour :(
Solved- Opened the back door & shot from my kitchen :)
Challenge #2- Large lens, longer exposure & tripod in trunk 500 km away.
Solved- A few board games stacked on a small stool which stood on a TV tray... & finally, a notepad wedged under the camera!
Challenge #3- Cleaning up the small lake that resulted from challenge #1... but... the camera did stay dry!
Challenge #4- MINIMAL editing :D

Not totally keen on your title, but I do like the shot - nice framing, very good use of the colorful background - matches your object well.
