Photo taken at the Toyota Oiden Fireworks Festival. When I think of summer in Japan, I immediately associate it with fireworks. When I captured these fireworks on camera, I felt something special and artistic, different from the fireworks I had seen before. A single large flower blooms majestically and small fireworks such as green and blue. I'm sure this work would be possible without all these fireworks. Impression of the efforts and sense of the fireworks master so far.

This photo was also taken at the Flower Culture Garden. Various wind chimes were displayed everywhere. The tone was so pure that even I, who usually listen to music while shooting, involuntarily took off my earphones. It is a piece of confidence that I used as much as I could use the techniques that I could use in the shooting.
