This photograph was taken of a collaboration of cherry blossoms and camellias blooming in a slightly dimly lit atmosphere. It gave a subdued yet impressive look of spring. At Jizoin Temple, cherry blossoms and camellias bloom quietly and close together, gently reminding us of the arrival of spring. Although not showy, the contrast between the red of the camellias and the pale cherry blossoms is beautiful and leaves a lasting impression on the viewer's mind. With few pedestrians on the street, visitors can enjoy taking pictures at their own pace in the slow pace of the day.
