An autumn scene near the Tachikawa Gate of Showa Memorial Park, featuring a row of golden ginkgo trees lining the canal against a crystal-clear blue sky

This photo was taken at Showa Memorial Park, a national park, and captures the row of ginkgo trees lining the canal near the Tachikawa entrance against a crystal-clear blue sky. By emphasizing the contrast between the ginkgo leaves, which have turned a vivid golden color, and the blue sky, I sought to capture the beauty of this ginkgo-lined avenue—a popular spot for viewing autumn foliage in Tachikawa—and the refreshing scenery of a clear autumn day.
