👒 Props: Straw hats, woven bags, and clear umbrellas are perfect accessories.
🕰️ Best Shooting Times: 9-11 AM or 4-6 PM to avoid harsh noon light and capture more translucent petals.

🔺 Wash hands after viewing; avoid touching your mouth, nose, or eyes.
🔺 Supervise children to prevent accidental ingestion or eye rubbing.
