Spring is at its full set #2, a photo from Tokyo, Kanto

Photographer's Note

This is one of the most famous sight for sakura (cherry blossom), the name is "Chidori-ga-fuchi park". Along with the moats of emperor palace, around 500 sakura trees are planted. 4th April was full bloom, so there were many many people, but the beauty was also outstanding. This is the one of the best spring scene in Japan. Boarding boat time starts from 9:30 but already ques occurs 2 hours before starts. Passengers just could abroad in waiting for 1.5 hours averagely.
Around 50 boats were waiting for the passengers off the gate.

Dear Takero,
how curious that there are no people in the boats! this creates a strange feeling of this scene belonging to the past or to the future (like in "The Langoliers" movie)
I like the composition and the DOF.
Warm regards,
Elena

A very beautiful Sakura blossom and a nice set of small boats in blue, with nice contrast to it's surrondings.
