This photo captures the feeling of "Early Morning Temple Gates and the Ankyo Cherry Blossom" at Mitsuzoin Temple.

This photograph captures the Ankyo cherry blossoms blooming around the temple gate in the quiet of the early morning. I aimed to create an image that conveys the crisp morning air. The Ankyo cherry blossoms at Mitsuzoin Temple beckon visitors seeking spring. The cherry blossoms blooming softly within the historic temple grounds feel like a treasure unexpectedly encountered on a journey. It's a photography spot with a mysterious charm, where time seems to slow down a little.
