These photos were taken in Itako, Japan, the last Saturday.
Iris festival have been held.
The Iris flowers were floodlit in the night.
Can you see blue spots extra in the following photos.
What are they ?
They are Inori Boshi setted on the river near the Iris Garden.
Please, see also this post about the old custom with wooden boats in this town.

Inori boshi…how fascinating!
Thank you for your comment, Bipasha
wow … the nighttime shots of the river are beautiful!!! I want to go there!
Thanks! Stephen.
I am glad you like.
A lot of people congested the bridge where I took the picture of the river.
Love these photos. The blue lights do add something extra, special to them. They make the whole place look magical, almost out of this world. I’m sure it was great to see those lights in real life 🙂
