This photo was taken at Hakusan Shrine, the principal shrine of Niigata, from a slightly wider angle to capture the beauty of the lotus flowers and leaves. By including not only the lotus flowers but also the surrounding leaves spreading out, the photo conveys the natural scenery characteristic of Hakusan Shrine’s lotus pond.
