This photograph captures sunflowers from behind. Since sunflowers often bloom facing the direction of sunrise, shooting in the morning allows you to photograph the petals translucent from behind. I was able to capture the sunflower petals beautifully glowing in the soft morning light.This photo, taken at the Zama Sunflower Field, was captured just as the sun was rising, allowing me to photograph the sunflower petals from behind, backlit. The soft morning light beautifully illuminates the sunflower petals, highlighting their delicate and vivid natural beauty. When shooting, I positioned the camera slightly from below to balance the blue sky within the frame, consciously emphasizing the contrast between the sunflowers and the sky.Zama Sunflower Field is famous for its vastness and the endless expanse of sunflowers stretching as far as the eye can see. The morning hours are especially ideal, as the soft sunlight allows you to enjoy the petals translucently catching the light. Shooting at this time beautifully reveals the intricate patterns and color gradients within the petals, capturing a different expression of the sunflowers than usual.
