This photo was taken by blurring the petals in the foreground while focusing on the sunflowers in the background. The blurring of the foreground enhances the depth and highlights the beauty of the sunflowers. In this photo taken at the Zama sunflower field, the petals of the sunflowers in the foreground are blurred and the sunflowers slightly in the background are brought into focus to create a three-dimensional effect of overlapping sunflowers. To emphasize the beauty of the sunflower field, I kept the foliage small in the composition so that many flowers could be seen. I also shot the photo from slightly lower in the sky to bring in the blue sky in the background, which enhanced the bright yellow color of the sunflowers. The Zama Sunflower Field is one of the most beautiful summer spots in the Kanto region, attracting visitors with sunflowers stretching as far as the eye can see. The sunflowers face the sun, and their bright yellow petals blend beautifully with the blue sky. Especially on sunny afternoons and evenings, the contrast between the blue sky and the sunflowers is striking, making for an especially photogenic sight.
