This photo captures the contrast between the blurred cherry blossoms and the Tokyo Skytree.

This photo was taken looking up at the Kawazu cherry blossoms blooming beneath Tokyo Skytree. By blurring the cherry blossoms and focusing on the Skytree, the sense of depth is emphasized. The contrast between the Skytree's sharp form and the fluffy blossoms of the Kawazu cherry is captivating.Compositions that frame the view with cherry branches or intentionally blur the Sky Tree can make each element stand out. The impression changes depending on the time of day, and the fantastical scenery woven by the evening illumination and cherry blossoms is another highlight.
