Nighttime sakura in a fierce wind
The hanami parties officially started on the Kanda River on April 1 (and run through April 10). That evening included very warm temperatures and a very strong wind. The “shake” in the above picture wasn’t from my hand; the cause was the wind through the trees.
The building in the background is the Four Seasons Hotel at Chinzanso.

Beautiful photo even with the wind…I love the light reflections in the water.

Nice image, the cherry blossoms add to the atmosphere.
