This photo shows the hollyhocks in full bloom, spreading out all over the water in Otone, the hometown of the nursery rhyme. The softly blooming flowers of the water hyacinths add color to the expanse of water surface. The lovely light-purple flowers and the movement of the leaves in the wind create a gentle scene that makes you want to forget about time and snap your shutter.
