At the Akagi Senbonzakura Festival, this photo was taken at what I felt was the "cherry blossoms on the right side of the slope and spring flowers.

This photo was composed as if looking down a slope, with blur in the foreground and depth in the order of rape blossoms, cherry blossoms, and lawn cherry blossoms. I placed the cherry blossoms on the right side of the image to create a sense of overall balance. The Akagi Senbon Cherry Blossom Festival offers a fascinating combination of the magnificent tunnel created by approximately 1,000 cherry trees and the rape blossoms blooming beside them. The soft pink of the Someiyoshino cherry trees and the cheerful yellow of the rape blossoms create a spring-like atmosphere, creating a picturesque scene no matter where you place the cherry blossoms. This is a must-visit spot if you want to enjoy spring in Maebashi City.
