The aligned daikon radishes appear lively and captivating. The composition with the radishes in the foreground and the person sitting on the beach is intriguing, giving the work an artistic feel.

Cherry Blossom Tunnel, A New Self
Spotlight by sugi0325
The image of a high school student in a cherry blossom tunnel conveys the emotions of spring, a season of meetings and farewells, making it a moving piece.

A newly admitted student taking out a smartphone under the cherry trees to capture the spring scenery is striking. It makes you want to wholeheartedly support their new school life.
By not focusing on the student, the viewer's imagination is sparked. Moreover, since the opposite side is photographed instead of the cherry blossoms, one wonders what scenery is unfolding in his eyes and on the smartphone screen. A highly narrative and remarkable image.
cizucu Editorial Team
Surprisingly, multiple Spotlights were given to a single photo. Even with the same photo, different points were appreciated or similar perspectives were shared, which was very interesting for the editorial team. We believe diverse perspectives encourage creative activities, so we have intentionally included multiple comments!

The twilight colors spreading across the scene are truly beautiful! The symmetrical composition centered on the sea horizon, with a bird on the left as an accent, adds to its magnificence. This image brings a sense of calm.
