A long exposure evening shot of the Niōmon Gate at Gumyoji Temple in Yokohama. The photo captures the stone staircase leading down to the illuminated wooden gate, framed by blooming cherry blossoms. Red nobori flags, blurred in motion, line the stairs, creating a sense of gentle movement against the calm, historic backdrop.
