Photo at Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine to bring out the depth of the roof structure and the line of wind chimes.

This photo was taken at Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine to give the viewer a sense of depth by composing the photo in such a way that the viewer's gaze flows from the front to the back, while being aware of the structure of the wind chimes and roof. During the summer season, a wind-bell corridor is set up at Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine, where visitors can enjoy a collaboration of cool sounds and light. The transparent wind chimes shining in the sunlight are a truly photogenic sight. The sound echoing in the silence gently blends into the air of the shrine.
