This photograph was taken at Aigo no Sato's cosmos field, capturing a well-formed sunflower from behind, allowing light to shine through. Surrounded by nature and flowers, Saitama Prefecture's "Aigo no Sato" is a popular tourist and photography spot where visitors can enjoy sunflowers, cosmos, lotus flowers, and more. The summer of 2025 was particularly spectacular, featuring the simultaneous bloom of sunflowers and cosmos. Visitors were moved by the expansive contrast of colors. At the lotus pond, lotus flowers blooming quietly in the morning light created a fantastical atmosphere. The grounds, spanning an area equivalent to five Tokyo Domes, feature natural woodlands, firefly-filled waters, walking paths, and farmland, allowing visitors to fully savor the seasons.
