Annabelle: Light and Shadow at Satte Gongen-do

This photograph captures the white Annabelle hydrangeas illuminated by the sun, visible from the shaded area in the foreground at Satte Gongen-do. At Satte Gongen-do, hydrangeas blooming along the embankment beautifully convey the changing seasons. The scenery created by the colorful flowers makes for a picturesque view regardless of the weather, and photographing them in the soft light of early morning is especially recommended.
