Taste the charm of the castle ruins and the colors of irises at Iris Castle Iris Garden
The Shobujo Iris Garden, which is at its best in early summer, attracts visitors with its colorful irises and irises blooming all over the garden. One of the attractions of the garden is that visitors can stroll along a well-maintained promenade and enjoy a relaxing walk surrounded by flowers. The tranquil scenery and the historical atmosphere of the ruins of a former castle make this a place where visitors can enjoy quiet time together with flowers.
Key points for photography
The key to taking photographs is to create a composition that conveys depth by taking advantage of the promenade. If you keep your eye level with the height of the flowers, and be aware of the flow of the flowers from the front to the back, you can express the expanse that is typical of the Iris Garden. Aiming at the flowers from a slightly lower position will emphasize the rhythm of the sequence of flowers, while looking down from a lower vantage point will help to bring together the layers of color. Selecting a time of day when the wind is calm will calm the appearance of the flowers, and a location near a body of water makes it easy to incorporate reflections. While changing your standing position little by little, try to carefully capture the tranquil atmosphere and early summer colors that are unique to Iris Castle Iris Garden.
