Title: Spectacular view of early spring
Photographer: yamatomo121
Shooting date and time: 2021/02/25 07:00

Photographer's comment: Kasamatsu Kawazu Sakura Road in MatsusakaCity has now become a tourist spot in Mie in early spring. The reflection of the cherry blossoms on the blue river surface was a beautiful sight, but the sight of the morning glow without a single cloud or wind was far more spectacular. I was lucky to encounter scenes that I don't see many times in one season.

Shooting location: Kasamatsu Kawazu Sakura Road

The reflection of the Kawazu cherry blossoms and the ship on the water is magical. The light gradation of the morning sun is also a beautiful photo.

yamatomo121 will receive a Matsusaka cowhide business card holder (equivalent to 10,000 yen) as the runner-up!
