This photograph captures a scene from the Oga Lotus Festival held at Chiba Park during the dim light of early morning. The Oga lotus, which reaches its peak bloom from mid-June to early July, appears even more beautiful in the cool morning air. Its charm lies in the petals beginning to open softly and its dignified, upright posture. It harmonizes beautifully with the waterside scenery and the greenery in the background, creating scenes that inspire the desire to photograph.
