On the previous day, Sunday, March 24, a high-grade train not normally in regular service—the E655 series “Nagomi” (all seats are Green Car specification)—made a round trip between Shinagawa Station and Atami Station, carrying 105 passengers to Atami.

It is said that the pale ink cherry blossoms are pink at the beginning and gradually become whitish. If anything, pink is rare. It's late this year. Takehara, Misugi-cho, Tsu-shi, Mie Prefecture March 18, 2024

Cherry blossom viewing tends to focus only on cherry blossoms, but when I looked at my feet, I saw the green of young grass, the yellow of dandelions, and many wonderful spring colors. Because you look at it from a different perspective, you can enjoy the colors of spring. Like.

Two children Under mighty cherry blossom tree. The elder sister was consoling her younger sibling who seemed to be feeling down. Although it was unclear what had caused the younger sister's sadness, it was heartwarming to witness the pure and simple expression of love and care between the two siblings. The scene made the observer reflect on how children are able to find happiness in even the smallest moments, while adults often struggle to do so. Taken in kitaasaba Sakura Zutsumi Saitama

I took this photo at Kita Asaba Sakura Zutsumi in Saitama, where I celebrated the arrival of spring on the day of the vernal equinox. In my country, we celebrate this time with natural colors and spend time with loved ones. The ritual symbolizes how nature becomes colorful at this time of the year, and so we celebrate it. In Japan, people also enjoy this season with their loved ones. While I was there, I saw a mother and her daughter with their family, having a great time and taking photos as memories. This entire scene reminded me of my childhood, when my mother also embraced me with the same emotion that is reflected in this image.
