4. Wow!

What spectacular photos! I really love the one where the woman is photographing one of those trees. The woman in the sarong in the background makes those blossoms seem even more exotic. But the blossom themselves--well, you pegged it by naming that photo "Glorious!" Those blossoms seem surreal, they seem to float on the branches, almost like they were photoshopped in. I went to DC once during the cherry blossom season, specifically to see those trees. Two days before I got there they had a storm that blew most of the blossoms off. And then it rained the whole three days I was there. So thank you for the chance to relive my trip vicariously through your photos! :hi:

5. They were 'peaking' as we watched that

day, millions of flowers opening before our eyes. It was still March- I think it was the 31th- but it was almost 80 degress. It was utterly magical....You must try again someday.
