Just a quick preview. I still have to edit some. More to follow. I hope spring will come in your area soon.

I'm really envious Glenn. These flowers look so good and smell so nice that I envy you for being in Japan to enjoy these. So far spring hasn't shown it's nose around my town. We're all waiting. :)

Keep these pictures coming.

Great shot, how are your allergies going?

I am ok so far Scott. It is pretty common here during this time of the year.

Thanks Marcel. I was actually thinking about you guys while I was shooting the blossoms. I brought along one of my friends who is fairly new with DSLR and he had a great time. I'll edit the rest tomorrow. I have a movie to catch. "300: The Rise of an Empire".

That would be great. One of my fondest memories of childhood was passing an orchard in Indiana when the apple blossoms were swirling in a spring breeze.

Well done, enjoyable to see, such eye candy, have a flowering cherry in our yard, just beginning to bud. Thank you for posting.

But almost as important as their look, don't forget to smell them. What a nice fragrance they have. :)
