This photo was taken at Yokosuka Shobu Garden, where I felt it captured "pink foreground blur and a watermill."

This photograph was taken at Yokosuka Iris Garden, focusing on the irises and waterwheel house in the background while softly blurring the pink flowers in the foreground. Surrounded by tranquil nature, Yokosuka Iris Garden offers a variety of flowers to enjoy throughout the seasons. In June, the irises in full bloom across the grounds reach their peak, vividly coloring the garden.The sight of flowers blooming by the water has a special charm, perfect for leisurely strolls. Hydrangeas are also beautiful, especially on rainy days. In spring, the wisteria trellis offers a soothing scene as pale purple flowers sway gently.
