This photo was taken at Tōkō-ji Temple (Azumino City), where I focused on a crape myrtle tree in full bloom and framed the temple in the background. By making the vibrant crape myrtle flowers the focal point while using the temple buildings as a backdrop, I captured a vibrant scene that captures the essence of Tōkō-ji in summer.
