This photograph was taken at the Kiyose Sunflower Festival, showing sunflowers in full bloom from the backside. The transparency and natural depth of the petals through the light delivers a gentle summer scene to the viewer. I never thought I would see such a vast field of sunflowers in Tokyo - such is the surprise of the Kiyose Sunflower Festival held in Kiyose City. The sunflowers blooming all at once under the sun are truly a “spectacular summer scene. Don't miss the wide-angle lens to capture the scale of the field, or the backlighting to bring out the transparency of the petals. Walking among the tall sunflowers is a heart-warming experience. A summer-only photojournalistic spot that will make you want to snap the shutter again and again. *Advance reservations are required on some days. *Morning and evening photography is not available due to opening hours.
