Feel the serenity created by the autumn metasequoia and the early morning water at Isanuma.
Isanuma is a spot where visitors can enjoy a relaxing time with its spacious pond and surrounding nature. Once familiar for its lotus blooms in summer, it is now in the process of revitalization, and visitors can enjoy the scenery that changes its expression with each season. Particularly recommended is autumn. The metasequoias that line the perimeter of the pond and at some distance from the pond change color, creating a serene atmosphere in which visitors can feel the depths of autumn. Also, on a clear day in the early morning, the reflection of the morning sun on the calm, windless surface of the water creates a beautiful scene that makes you want to stop and take a look. This is the perfect place for those who want to take a leisurely stroll while enjoying the tranquility and nature of the four seasons.
Key points for photography
The key to photographing metasequoia is to aim for backlighting in the morning. The light coming in from a low angle will allow the leaves to shine through, creating a soft, autumnal atmosphere. Also, when photographing the pond, choose a day when there is no wind and the timing of sunrise, when the clouds are slightly floating, is recommended. The colors of the sky, clouds, and the morning sun will reflect on the surface of the water, creating a beautiful reflection.
