Key points for photography

The key to photography is to be aware of the flowers of each season and the time of day. Iris, hydrangea, and ancient lotus easily show their colors in soft morning light, and especially just after sunrise, you can take advantage of the morning dew and the moist atmosphere of the water's edge. Manjusaka flowers tend to be saturated with red when the light is too strong, so it is recommended to choose semi-backlit or soft light. Also, because Mizumoto Park is a large park, there are places where man-made objects tend to appear in the background, so it is important to find a composition where only nature appears by slightly changing your standing position. While the park is quiet and easy to photograph in the early morning, it is also dark underfoot in some areas, so be sure to enjoy photographing while taking safety precautions.
