This photo was taken at Kiuizu Shrine, the principal guardian shrine of Iwatsuki in Musashi Province, in a slightly dimly lit area, with the blue maple leaves in the background. By incorporating vibrant green into the subdued light, I created a photo that conveys the shrine’s tranquility and the coolness of summer.
