Muza-chan's Gate to Japan

Photographing Sakura

Thu, March 12, 2015, by Muza-chan
The delicate beauty of the sakura flowers was immortalized in the Japanese art since the oldest times. Whether it was in painting, in brocade fabric or in wooden sculpture, artists tried to convey the aesthetic pleasure experienced while admiring the blooming trees...

Today, of course, it's a lot easier, we film and photograph the flowers, "bookmarking" our emotions. Still, the experience is no less magical...
