This photograph captures the beautiful hydrangeas blooming near Hakusan Shrine when I parked my car on the roadside. I shot it at F11 with focus set across the entire scene. Hakusan Shrine (Bunkyo Ward) is a rare spot where you can photograph hydrangeas alongside traditional shrine structures. During the hydrangea festival season, the flowers blooming along the approach and within the shrine grounds catch visitors' eyes and inspire them to take photos.
