This photograph captures the lotus flowers beginning to bloom at dawn in Mizumoto Park, shot with an F16 setting for sharpness and a deliberate focus on their dignified atmosphere. Early morning, as the lotus flowers start to open, Mizumoto Park is truly a place where you can feel nature's breath. The contrast between the morning sun reflecting on the pond and the flowers is beautiful, making it an ideal location for photography.
