This photo was taken at Futarasan Shrine, with two wind chimes as the main subjects and the shrine’s surroundings incorporated into the background. By paying attention to the balance of the wind chimes’ placement and softening the background, I captured the cool, refreshing atmosphere typical of a shrine in summer.
