This photo was taken at Yokosuka Shobuen Garden, where I felt it was "a single, perfectly formed iris."

This photograph captures a single, perfectly formed iris I selected at Yokosuka Iris Garden, carefully observing it while taking the shot. It's a renowned flower spot enveloped in nature, offering beautiful seasonal floral scenery. In June, when it reaches its peak, the irises bloom in full, spreading across the landscape and overwhelming visitors. The irises reflected on the water's surface are also beautiful, creating a photogenic scene.During the rainy season, hydrangeas also reach their peak, coloring the garden. In spring, the softly blooming wisteria creates an elegant and dreamlike atmosphere.
