The season when cherry blossoms are in full bloom in Japan.

I captured the essence of “Japanese spring” through this woman wearing a kimono and holding a traditional Japanese umbrella.



This photo was taken with a 150–600mm super-telephoto lens.

Because of the distance, we couldn’t speak to each other. This shot was made possible thanks to the trust we built between us.
