A lovely shot of two double sunflowers blooming in close vertical rows at the Sunflower Festival in Akke, Chikusei City, Ibaraki Prefecture.

This photo was taken of two double sunflowers lined up close together vertically at the Sunflower Festival in Asake. I felt the warmth of the season in the sight of the flowers blooming side by side. The popular summer festival of sunflowers in Akeno is also an attractive spot for photography. The double sunflowers that fill the festival grounds can be combined with the blue sky and distant scenery to create a dynamic shot. Photo frames and a stage for the event are also available for commemorative photos. The bright yellow color of the sunflower field not only looks great on SNS, but is also recommended for recording summer trips and making photo albums.
