CHERRY BLOSSOM PHOTOS

The Magic of Cherry Blossom Season

Cherry blossoms bloom for only a short period, usually lasting just one to two weeks. This fleeting beauty is a cherished tradition in Japan, where people gather for hanami, or flower-viewing celebrations, under the blossoming trees. Parks, temples, and riversides become vibrant with delicate petals, creating some of the most picturesque scenes in nature.

My award-winning fine art Japanese cherry blossom photos showcase the stunning elegance of these blooms in various settings here in the US. Whether it's the blooming cherry blossoms on the UW Quad here in Seattle at the University of Washington, in the Portland Japanese Garden or the famous cherry blossoms along Washington, D.C.'s Tidal Basin, these images capture the magic of Japan’s most beloved flower.
