Early-blooming lotus flower: Kencho-ji

Lotus flower: Kencho-ji


Earlier than usual, a pale-yellow flower of lotus is blooming towards the radiant sun hastily as if to welcome the premature arrival of the long-expected midsummer.

Lotus leaves in Tsurugaoka-hachimangu


The numerous new leaves of lotus are rising to the calm water surface of the pond to prepare for its blooming season.

In the transparent morning sunlight, the water drops which the night rain left behind are shining clearly like precious amulet gems for these newborn leaves.

Soon summer must arrive here to let lotus bloom gloriously.
