Japan chickens and plums

This is Sakura, Hirakata City, Osaka Prefecture.

Awesome! The samurai residences of Kakunodate were awesome when I went there. The cherry blossoms were really amazing as well. Along the river and all along the houses. I remember I talked to one of the local shopkeepers here for a minute and it was really nice. There's supposed to be castle ruins somewhere near the town as well but I didn't get a chance to see them. This is a great place to visit in the spring for anyone curious. I highly recommend checking it out. Be careful of the big green spiders though, lol. I think they're probably harmless but they are quite surprising...

Shot in front of my home. I cut the mimosa in the flower bed because it bloomed beautifully. I see my soon-to-be-five-year-old daughter and soon-to-be-one-year-old son behind me.

The cherry blossom kominka samurai residence and cherry blossoms in Kakunodate, Iwate Prefecture remind me of the good old days. I want to take a walk in kimono.

It is a rapeseed field in southern Izu. I feel spring one step ahead.

A field of rape blossoms that is pleasing to the eye and delicious.

Well if the last few days were any indication of what's to come then we should be seeing cherry blossoms in Tokyo in about a week. Today was a bit more chilly but Saturday the weather was great. Was able to throw on a t shirt and didn't need to turn the heat on at all. Got some work done around the house this weekend and looking forward to going out to some parks next weekend to see some cherry blossoms hopefully. If they're not blooming by next Saturday then the weekend after next should be great so I'm looking forward to that. Plum wine and BBQ here I come!

Sparkly and fluffy plum blossoms. It is warm and soothing to the heart.

Plum blossoms and whitetails On a warm spring day, I took a spring-like photo with plum blossoms and mejiro. At Fuchu City Folk Forest Park, Tokyo

Plum blossoms blooming in the cold sky It's not as gorgeous as cherry blossoms, though. It soothes the feeling of waiting Ishikoji Temple, Nara

I made chirashi sushi to celebrate my sister's first season. When I checked the photo I took to commemorate it, I saw my brother's hand 、、、!

The special feeling of cherry blossoms at night while strolling. #Spring

It is a park near the house. In spring, the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, There are many families with children. It's bustling. It's wide, so it's a good walk ^^ ♪

This is a photo of Miyajima's Momijima Valley. Autumn leaves and cherry blossoms in spring. It shows various expressions. I hope you will come and visit us.

I took a picture of the plum blossoms in full bloom now. Location: Nagoya City Agricultural Center

Deep in the mountains of Shiga with the Suzuka Mountains in the background, you can enjoy a relaxing spring later than on the flatlands.

While driving around Shodoshima, there was a farm along National Route 436 Yasuda, Shodoshima Town where Kawazu cherry blossoms were in full bloom, and when I stopped by, there were many whitetails gathered in flowers. I took this photo with the zoom of a compact camera.

Ahhh I can't wait for the cherry blossoms to start blooming. Only about a week left I guess. Today was nice and warm in Tokyo so hopefully that's a continuing trend from here on out as I'm kind of done with the cold weather this year lol! The winter scenery was all really beautiful but I think it's time for spring already. I need to look into buying a new BBQ so I can visit some parks and just relax for a whole day while eating delicious food and admiring the cherry blossoms. Hopefully Shinjuku Gyoen is open around then cuz I think it's been closed for a bit now, we'll see though. Anyways Mishima Taisha looks really cool. I always love seeing a row of cherry blossoms creating a tunnel. I'll have to add it to my list of places to visit in Shizuoka!

Shot near Skytree Tobu Bridge The wind speed was 3-5m/s It was fine. Shooting with the Sky Tree & Kawazu cherry blossoms to the full angle of view I remember struggling to focus. Shooting with persistence with AF without matching with MF I learned one new thing with the AF setting.

Shot near Skytree Tobu Bridge The weather was fine with a wind speed of 3 to 5 m/s. I couldn't take a picture of the cherry blossom blizzard, but I was able to take a spring-like photo.

Shot near Skytree Tobu Bridge The weather was clear with no wind. Isn't it one of the most iconic landscapes of Japan? I focused on the cherry blossoms and took the picture.

#春 #桜 Finally, I was able to see the buds on the cherry blossoms. This year it was colder than last year, so flowering is likely to be delayed.
