This photo was taken at the cosmos field in Hongo (Tokorozawa), where I used the shadows cast on the path as the background to frame a single deep-pink cosmos as the main subject. By darkening the background, I aimed to make the vivid pink of the sunlit petals stand out even more, capturing the splendor and dignified beauty of autumn cosmos.
