29th Apr 2023: Yellow Flower fields

Image
Every morning on my way to work, I passed a beautiful flower field. I often parked my car there and took a few photos. At the time, the only lens I had was a 24mm, which wasn’t wide enough for a full panoramic shot, but I still managed to capture the vast expanse of yellow flowers stretching as far as the eye could see.

22nd Apr 2023: Cherry blossoms in London.

Image
During my first spring after moving to London, I was captivated by the beautiful cherry blossoms blooming in front of the church near my home. Spring in London is a season when cherry blossoms bring vibrant color to the city.  The peak viewing period is from mid-March to late April, though some varieties can be enjoyed until early May. You’ll find delicate blossoms reminiscent of Japan’s Somei Yoshino as well as lush, layered petals like those of Yaezakura, creating a rich and varied display over several weeks. Unlike Japan’s traditional hanami culture, the common way to appreciate cherry blossoms here is through quiet walks. The sight of these blossoms harmonizing with historic architecture and verdant parks offers rare moments of serenity in the heart of the city. In springtime London, even a simple stroll through the neighborhood can lift your spirits and make the day feel brighter.
