This photo was taken at Nikko Hana Ichimonme and captures the sight of countless bright red dahlias in full bloom. By focusing on the beauty of the vivid red petals layered upon one another and the vibrant colors created by the clustered flowers, I sought to convey the splendor and passionate atmosphere unique to a fall dahlia garden.
