This photo was taken at Kote Gongendo, where I felt "the beauty of daffodils blooming on the slope and the light.

This photo was taken with the soft light hitting the daffodils on the slope in mind. The angle of the slope enhances the flowers. Kote Gongendo is a perfect spot for photographing daffodils. The daffodils bloom from winter to spring, adorning the slopes, and the contrast created by their pure white petals and yellow centers is very beautiful. The daffodils shine under a blue sky, and of course, on cloudy days, the soft light creates a serene atmosphere for photos.
