For this photo, I tried to capture the feeling of depth on an unmanned road in normal mode, not in wide-angle mode. Wakatake no Mori, Wakayama Farm, located in Utsunomiya City, Tochigi Prefecture, is a popular tourist spot that is highlighted by the beauty of its expansive bamboo forest. This is a place where walking through the lush bamboo foliage, you will feel a pleasant sense of tranquility and healing, as if you have entered a quiet, otherworldly place. Especially in spring, many visitors come to enjoy the fresh green bamboo grove and bamboo shoot picking. In spring, young bamboo grows vigorously at Wakayama Farm, creating a vivid landscape of fresh green. The soft light shining through the bamboo creates a heartwarming scene that evokes the vitality of the season. Stepping into the bamboo grove, you will experience a moment of release from the hustle and bustle of daily life as the gentle sound of the bamboo swaying in the wind echoes pleasantly in your ears.
