Hanami...long lost journey to catch fully bloom Sakura

Hanami, partying under Cherry blossom (Sakura), an unique Japan tradition


Pinky Sakura

As a poor tourist like me, a chance to catch Sakura season in fully bloom condition was like a dream come true. My eyes can't blink at all, afraid if I blink then the Sakura will fall out... qqq ... My mouth can only say "WOW!" while agape and hypnotized along the way.

My fingers on auto pilot mode, continuously shooting the camera to all directions, without caring anymore will the picture focused or blurry, don't even care how many of photos has been taken, when the object was in the same shapes and colors ...... let it be.....
