The white peacock facing sideways at Amabiki Kannon (Amabiki-yama Rakuhōji Temple)

This photograph captures a pure white peacock facing sideways at Amabiki Kannon Temple, shot within a serene atmosphere. For photographers seeking to add a creative touch to their composition, the water lilies at Amabiki Kannon offer an ideal subject. The sight of ducks floating among colorful hydrangeas is perfect for shots utilizing light-dark contrast and bokeh. When mist is present, it allows for fantastical effects.
