Kasai Shinsui Midorido|A walkway in the rainy season where hydrangea and the morning sun overlap

Enjoy the waterside in the rainy season when the morning sun and hydrangea overlap on the Kasai Shinsui Greenway.

At Kasai Shinsui Midorido, you can enjoy beautiful hydrangeas blooming along the waterfront during the rainy season, especially at the point where you can photograph them facing the morning sun, creating an impressive scene where the sunrise and the hydrangeas overlap. During the quiet morning hours, the hydrangeas shining in the soft morning sunlight blend naturally with the waterside scenery and enhance the moist beauty of the rainy season. The early morning when there are few people around is also an attractive time to take pictures, and it is a recommended spot to take your time to capture the special moment of the hydrangea and sunrise in the cool air.

Key points for photography

The key to photographing hydrangeas is to check the direction of sunrise in advance and find a spot where you can stand where the hydrangea and the morning sun overlap. During the rainy season, the light tends to be weak, but by aiming for a sunny morning, you can get gentle backlighting on the hydrangea and bring out the transparency of the petals. Another advantage is that early in the morning, when there are fewer people and the surface of the water is calm, it is easier to organize the background.
