A summer scene at Daio Wasabi Farm, featuring a waterwheel and the Tade River viewed from beneath the green maple leaves

This photo was taken at the Daio Wasabi Farm, capturing the waterwheel and the river from beneath the green maple leaves. By incorporating the vivid green of the maple leaves into the frame and combining them with the waterwheel visible in the background and the flow of the Tade River, I sought to convey a refreshing summer scene.
