This photo was taken at Kumagaya Sports and Culture Park, focusing on the sunflowers in the foreground with the expansive sunflowers and sports dome in the background. I set the aperture to F18 to ensure sharp focus from the foreground to the background.Kumagaya Sports and Culture Park becomes an ideal photography spot in summer when sunflowers bloom everywhere. Tall sunflowers stand in neat rows throughout the park, creating a beautiful contrast with the blue sky and offering photogenic scenery.Its charm lies in the variety of expressions you can capture through compositional techniques: focusing on the foreground sunflowers to blur the background, or shooting against the light to make the flowers appear translucent. Furthermore, the park features a sports dome and lush greenery, allowing you to create unique landscape photos by combining these elements with the sunflowers. By utilizing the soft morning light or the golden light of evening, you can capture photos with different impressions at different times of day, even in the same location.
