[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The cherry blossom (sakura) is Japan's unofficial national flower. It has been celebrated for many centuries and takes a very prominent position in Japanese culture.

There are many dozens of different cherry tree species in Japan, most of which bloom for just a couple of days in spring. The Japanese celebrate that time of the year with hanami (cherry blossom viewing) parties under the blooming trees.

Wonderfully captured...showing the beauty of sakura! Soft and simple. I like this photo alot. Wish you had one with the blossoms just covering the whole picture.

Nice flowers with very nice soft colours. Lighting and compo are very solved here but it
May be that needs some more sharpness.
Very nice post and good note too.
Best regards.
Jacobo
