The cherry blossoms look like fairies dancing on the water.

This is a beautiful composition, Gabriela. The tree offers its beautiful reflection and then adds its blossoms to the mix as well like a natural Photoshop layering. A glorious image.

All those pictures are really nice Gabriella. Are the cherry blossoms allready blooming in Yokohama? Here there are just starting.

@akarui: Yes, it has started...the big craziness is coming! Yesterday I took a tour in the neighbourhood and I couldn't believe my eyes: some in full blom, others halfway and....gorgeous peach trees (momo) garlanded from top to bottom in pink! All of a sudden there was an outburst! Unfortunately, today it is windy and rather cold, not a good weather for shooting as everything is moving! I also saw a huge Magnolia tree (haku mokuren) completely in bloom! Well, I see them every year, but they always surprise me these flowers with their exuberant joy for life! Why, Kagoshima is late? It should have been past the period of blooming????!!!!
well it is YOU that we have to thank for sharing the beauty of Japan this year, stay safe have harmony in life Gabriela

Bonjour Gabriela,
Vos photos chantent la beauté et me donnent le plaisir de vous écrire :
Voyez l’oiseau qui effleure le temps, la fleur qui palpite sa beauté, la clarté qui distrait l’obscurité, l’abeille qui se jette sur la vie, ils sont l’expression de celle que j’aime.
Bien à vous et douce journée printanière, amicalement, Mary. © La Poétaniste

The elegant beauty of this tree arching over the water brings great delight and awe to the viewer. I look forward to our own cherry trees blossoming with even greater anticipation. Beautifully captured Gabriela.

Gorgeous shot. It is easy to see why Japanese painting has the style that it does. Stunning.

Beautiful capture. The floating petals really make for a gorgeous scene.

Wow. Beautiful capture! I can't believe it's already blooming. There's still a week to go until the craziness begins down here in Kyoto.

Super, super. Wonderful. Wooo! Aren't these just the most beautiful, ethereal things we have the good fortune to see in our mortal lives?
