At Higashi-Takahashi, I photographed the vibrant green kochia with the light coming from behind, focusing on creating a sense of depth.

This photo was taken at Higashi-Takahashi, where I captured the vibrant green kochia in direct sunlight while paying close attention to the sense of depth. I arranged the kochia—which appears bright as it catches the sunlight head-on—from the foreground to the background, composing the shot to convey the expansiveness of the green kochia field.
