Capturing the full bloom and remnants of summer at Endo Farm's sunflower field
Endo Farm's sunflower field is an attractive spot to visit in summer. When the sunflowers are at their best, they fill the field of view and stand out vividly against the blue sky, creating a powerful scene that makes you want to stop and snap your shutter. The sunflowers in full bloom, of course, but also the flowers that have passed their peak and are a little depressed, have a flavor that reminds us of the remnants of summer and the changing of the seasons. The ability to capture the flow of time and the expressions of nature as they are is one of the charms of this sunflower field.
Key points for photography
In the sunflower field at Endo Farm, I used a wide angle to capture the flowers in full bloom along with the sky to create a sense of scale, and I dared to move closer to the slightly wilted flowers to blur the background to contrast the power of summer and the changing seasons.
