Hanami 2006

I've got in on Hanami early this year, snapping these shots on the way to work this morning. Most of the trees havn't started blossoming yet. But Shinjuku Chuo Park has a few trees of a variety that bloom about a week early, I first noticed them showing colour on Saturday. So I guess that next weekend the real fun will start.

Monday the 20th of March

A few weeks later in Chuo park, the predominant variety are almost in full bloom.
