The Star of Spring in Japan :: Beautiful Japan #76

Not just the spring, but of all seasons. The cherry blossoms are the star of Japan.

This is a yaeshidarezakura, or weeping cherry with more than 5 petals on the flower. It's a beautiful flower!

They are now nearly completely gone. But I have many thousands of photos of them to work my way through. Add that to the pile of thousands of photos from previous years. I think even if I left Japan tomorrow I would have enough Japan photos to process and share for the rest of my life.

@violetmed, this one looks a bit like the unknown flower you posted the other day I think. What do you think?

Do you want to use this photo in one of your projects?
You can! See here for details.
