Photo of the rose garden at the Jindai Botanical Park in a composition with colorful roses and a central sculpture superimposed.

This photograph captures the presence of the sculpture in the center against a background of blooming roses in the Rose Garden at the Jindai Botanical Garden. I was conscious of the coexistence of flowers and art. The Jindai Botanical Garden is a rare place in Tokyo where one can take the time to enjoy the flowers of each season. From cherry and plum blossoms in spring, hydrangeas in early summer, and roses in spring and fall, there are attractive subjects in every season, making it fun to think about composition. The rose garden, in particular, is beautifully landscaped, even down to the background, making it easy to take pictures in harmony with the flowers.
