At Koganei Park, a photo capturing what I felt was "the white of spring found at my feet."

This photo captures a lily of the valley spotted through the gaps in the rapeseed flowers. There was a joy in noticing these delicate blooms right at my feet when I happened to glance down. Koganei Park, boasting one of Tokyo's most nature-rich locations, welcomes spring with rapeseed flowers, cherry blossoms, lilies of the valley, and more, making it the perfect season for flower photography.The yellow rapeseed flowers look best in wide-angle compositions emphasizing expansiveness, and pairing them with the blue sky on a clear day is especially recommended. With many cherry blossom varieties, capturing weeping cherry trees or the depth of tree-lined avenues is another enjoyable photographic point. Lilies of the valley blooming in dappled sunlight are perfect for close-ups, allowing you to capture the soft, gentle essence of spring in your photos.
