A little over a year since I took delivery of the car. I couldn't take photos with the autumn leaves last year so this year my wish came true🍁 I couldn't put the top down in summer because it was too hot but the weather turned just right for an open-top drive after a long time On a drive, I stopped by Kiminomori Metasequoia Trees in Oamishirasato City The white Copen and the orange-lined trees matched perfectly, giving a full autumn vibe✨

I aimed to take a photo that makes you feel the autumn breeze.
