A red spider lily photographed with the focus set on the rope at Yagihara Red Spider Lily Village

This photo was taken at Yagihara Higanbana Village; I focused on the boundary rope and blurred the higanbana flowers in the background. I used the difference in focus to convey the spatial relationship between the rope and the flowers.
