This photo was taken at the Tanbara Lavender Park. Although some of the lavenders were dying, they were still blooming beautifully, and I captured them together with the wooden benches that accentuate the scenery. It gives a sense of serenity in nature. If you are looking for a place to photograph flowers in summer, Tanbara Lavender Park is a place you cannot miss. From July to August, lavender and sunflowers bloom at the same time in a rare landscape, and the coolness of the 1,300-meter-high plateau, the blue sky, and the contrast of bright purple and yellow colors are used to compose the lavender ridges The backlighting and low angle composition of the sunflowers are especially recommended.
