A delicate photograph of a potted bellflower gently captured in soft light at Nishiarai Daishi

This photograph was taken at Nishiarai Daishi Temple, where I discovered a charming bellflower planted in a pot. I captured it in soft light to highlight its gentle hues. During summer at Nishiarai Daishi, countless wind chimes swaying in the breeze adorn the temple grounds, warmly welcoming visitors. The light filtering through glass, the cool, soothing sounds, and the tranquil atmosphere combine to create the perfect moment for photography. Simply changing the composition brings out the character in the photo.
