[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A family out for a walk around Lake Suwa on a nice day. Although not clear skies, I couldn't have asked for more contrast in the sky with the dark clouds parted in places by bright blue skies trying to peek through.

On the weekends during the beginning of spring when all of the cherry blossoms start blooming, the traffic slows down and everyone heads out to enjoy the beautiful views. Although they only last for a few weeks, it's well worth getting out to see.

Hi Damon,
This is a very beautiful photo. You captured the cherry blossoms beautifully, together with the human element. I especially liked the view with the kid held up above by his dad. Amazing colors as well. Great timing, great pov, great capture. Congrats.
TFS.

Rgds,
Andrew.

This is a very cool shot, I think! It's really very nice the way this family is silhouetted against the great sky and under the Sakura tree. It's a very beautiful photograph.
