Yokohama water supply photo contest [winning work was decided! ]

You've often searched for a shooting position where the manholes on the tap water line up in a row, even though irregular. The sun shines there and emits a golden light. The day the Asahi climbed on the extension of this road is the same as taking a Diamond Fuji, waiting for the moment of the once-in-a-lifetime meeting.
By holding the camera in the vertical position and shooting, unnecessary things do not enter, and it clearly conveys what you wanted to take and express.

It is adorable to play a lot in the park and drink at the height of the fountain while leaning out, and it is said that the water is very delicious. This photo encourages Water Works Bureau employees who continue to deliver safe and high-quality water.

Children play with water in the fountain square of Nissan Stadium in midsummer. It is a work that seems to hear the cheers of children so energetic that they can not be erased by the sound of water.

The sight of the water pipes undulating in the sky while straddling the river, as if reminiscent of a near future city is a masterpiece.

It's called composition, color composition, and photo contests such as camera magazines and camera manufacturers may have won the highest award. It's so excellent as a photographic work.
