No filters, no beauty mode—just pure, unfiltered reality. I tweaked the lighting slightly to compensate for the gloomy overcast sky, giving the scene a subtle glow. Clearly, we’re a tad early—what a pity after finally securing those coveted boat tickets! Maybe next year’s timing will be perfect… Though I must say, the close-up shots turned out surprisingly well.
Those crimson buds hint that peak bloom is still about a week away. For the magical “snow tunnel” effect of petals dancing on the water’s surface, you’ll need even more patience. My advice? Skip these transitional days and wait for nature’s grand spectacle.
The overcast sky actually adds a nice moody feel to the footage. It’ll be even more stunning once the cherry blossoms are in full bloom—fingers crossed for better weather next time!
