This year’s Cherry Blossom Festival is starting in just a few days, so I thought I would share some photos I took at last years’.

I loved taking pictures during this event because I enjoy capturing beautiful things that only exist temporarily.

Looks like the pictures are from early morning and the cherry blossoms :cherry_blossom: look ravishing in this light. I will try to go to the Tidal Basin this year in the morning as well.
