A Japanese Season Photo

Photographer’s Note

Japan is a terrific place to be during the sakura season, not only for the cherry blossom trees blooming for a couple of days in spring, but also for numerous ladies wearing extravagant kimonos when visiting shrines, temples, pagodas and parks

Hello Andre,
Oooh, very romantic! I love the composition of your shot, the lady seems to be enveloped by all that vegetation. Especially the pink "roof" of the sakura blossoms is nice - they seem to be raining on her (so it is good she is holding an umbrella :-) ). I like your work with the DOF, too, with pretty well just your object being in focus - the eye is immediately drawn to her. And all the pastel colours bring a sense of composure to the shot and are so well suited for this moment of contemplation that you have captured. TFS and have a nice day, Dasha

ça existe donc vraiment?...
On voit ce genre de scène dans les films, dans les documentaires... une photo magnifique, terriblement romantique, les cerisiers japonais en fleurs, le premier plan flou comme les pétales qui s'envolent, et cette femme en habit traditionnel.
Encore un beau voyage que tu nous offres.

A very delicate moment.... So well caught here...
The subtle leading of eyes by the fence & posts.... Very nice.

Hello André,

Une nouvelle image mais qui pourrait presque ressembler à une photographie volée. C'est peut-être le cas...
L'ambiance est assez intimiste et les couleurs très douces permettent de juger de l'ambiance à l'intérieur de ce parc. Les fleurs très floues au premier plan me dérangent quelque peu car elles empêche l'oeil de profiter pleinement du décor de l'arrière plan.
Sinon, on a l'impression de se trouver devant une scène d'un autre temps.
A+

Hello Andre,
This image is so elegant, so feminine, so soft, so dainty. I love the pastelly colours, I love the delicate flowers surrounding her, I like that she is undisturbed, I love the blurred out blossoms in the foreground. Beautiful!

Hi Andre,
This is a classic photo and a very romantic one. I like the soft colors, and the compositional use of the wooden column, dividing he vertical cadrage into almost two equal parts. The elegant lady with umbrella, placed inside the sakura makes a pleasant visionary.
Best regards,
Deniz
