A view of Kasama Inari Shrine with lanterns and wisteria flowers reflected faintly in the background.

This photo was taken at the Kasama Inari Shrine, with the lantern in focus and the wisteria flowers in faint focus, while being conscious of the depth of the image. By softly showing the wisteria in the background, a calm Japanese atmosphere and three-dimensionality are expressed.
