One of the highlights of spring is enjoying the sakura
Or Japanese cherry blossoms in the centre of Stockholm.
The sakura speak to us of
What is possible
And of petalled beauty
That lasts only a short time,
Blooming without holding back
And reminding us that life is like the sakura:
Fleeting, fragile, fabulous.
For more beauty, please visit: Our World.
And don’t forget: Skywatch.
I love the photos and your adjectives to which I’ll add GLORIOUS. I love too how you spread joy with that camera lens of yours and your sharp eye.

Before seeing your spectacular photos I had no idea Stockholm had such a display of cherry tree blossoms – to me they were associated with Japan. Now I know when to time my visit when I come to Sweden!
Now I’m off to look at your photos again – they’re enchanting.

Fiona, these photographs took my breath away! OMG…the color you captured is amazing! Pink happens to be one of my favorite colors; therefore I was in awe! Don’t you just love cherry blossom trees? And my favorite thing about them is when the petals fall from the branches, making the ground look as though it’s covered with pink confetti!
Have a beautiful weekend, my friend!

Wonderful sight in Stockholm! I have only one Japanese Cherryblossom tree. Every year I enjoy its pink blossom. Like you I have taken photos. every year.
Thank you for your comment. I cannot imagine how life in a palace is. I think I prefer the gardener’s house and the same palace garden around it.
I wish you a great week!
