Photographing a blue wind chime against a sparkling blue background at Kuiizu Shrine, the principal guardian shrine of Iwatsuki in Musashi Province

This photo was taken at Kiuizu Shrine, the principal guardian shrine of Iwatsuki in Musashi Province. I composed the shot with a blue wind chime as the main subject, while blurring the background into a sparkling blue bokeh. By coordinating the colors of the wind chime and the background in shades of blue, I created a cool and refreshing photo that makes you forget the summer heat.
