Gallery - Lake x cherry blossoms

As it is far too hot to visit a lake this week, I'm marking "Forest and Lake Appreciation Week" by sharing a small photo gallery instead. My previous post featured reflections on a quiet lake, and this one highlights a few lake-and-cherry blossom scenes; one of my favorite spring combinations. If you’re planning next year’s hanami outings, I highly recommend choosing a spot with a lake. The blossoms feel even more magical by water, especially if you can manage to get them reflected in the water too.
