This photo captures the beauty of the expansive cosmos field (Lemon Bright) and the path at the National Showa Memorial Park.

This photograph captures a carpet of yellow cosmos flowers and a winding path, with distant trees balanced harmoniously within the frame. The overall composition creates depth and harmony, enhancing the natural beauty. Showa Memorial National Park is a vast park where visitors can enjoy seasonal flowers throughout the year, with its cosmos fields creating a spectacular landscape in autumn.The field covered entirely in the yellow cosmos variety "Lemon Bright" particularly captivates many visitors. This beautiful cosmos field was photographed from above to maximally express its expanse and scenic charm. A key compositional point was incorporating the winding path within the cosmos field. The natural curves of this path lend movement and depth to the entire field, conveying its vastness to the viewer.Furthermore, by composing the shot to include a generous portion of sky, the contrast between the yellow cosmos and the blue sky becomes strikingly vivid. Especially when the sky is clear with cumulus clouds floating overhead during the shoot, it allows for capturing even more dynamic and impressive photographs.
