Sakura

Watching the cherry blossoms, it's a particular and busy activity in Japan. Japanese even got a word for it Hanami (花見). As the blossoming starts in January and ends near April, I was quite lucky to still witness some. In the coastal, flatter parts of Japan most blossoms were gone, but in the higher, mountainious regions some trees were still in full bloom.
Evenn you saw 50 sakura trees already you still feel the same amasment as with your first tree. And of course you are not the only tourist snapping away at those splendid trees, so just go with the flow and let your camera click away Japanese style!
