Norbert,
this is almost a classic in your Japan collection. Sakura all over and the photographer documenting not only your passion for this view. The boulders palced evenly in the yard allow for additional sense of depth especially achieved due to the low incoming sun light and projecting the shadows on the ground.

This is very nice and also like it for this photo shows the culture in Japan where gorunds are set-up to appreciate the trees when in bloom. I have not seen this in other countries.

Hi Norbert
This is really so Japanese with the sakura (my daughter is a huge fan of the Naruto series) and the guy taking the photo. The view is nice and wide taking advantage of the 18mm. Having the rocks and people in the background add lots of depth.
Regards
Nikki

Hi Norbert

Nice repetition of the warm toned stones, which contrast well against the cool blue of the sky. The cherry blossum always looks good. Tfs!

Hello Norbert,
Jolie photo de ce parc et de ce beau cerisier en fleurs.
De belles couleurs estivales et un bon cadrage avec ce couple. C'est amusant toutes ces pierres sur le sol.
Best regards and have a good weekend,

Hello Norbert,

Congratulation with you 60.000 points, this is absolutely a lot here on this site, and this after long absence.
This picture gives a very great dynamic through the big stones as benches, happy that you found a few people as addition to the photograph.
Nice depth and good perspective, good presentation too.
Thanks for sharing.

Nice day Norbert,
John.
