Cherry blossoms just passing in the full bloom

I missed to shoot in the best time of Somei-yoshino blossoms in the spring 2020.
But I couldn't give up, looked for the angle where many branches appeared to overlap and took this photo.
While pale color petals were falling in the wind, I looked up to branches that had flowers left to shoot them.
Because there were many peduncles that already lost petals, in this photo, their red color tends to stand out more than photos taken when it was in full bloom.
The blue sky, the white flowers, the red peduncles and the brown branches ... that's also one scene of the cherry tree in the spring.

見頃を過ぎ始めた桜

2020年の春、私はソメイヨシノの満開に間に合いませんでした。
それでも諦めきれず、枝が多く重なり合っているアングルを探し、この写真を撮影しました。
淡い色の花弁が風で散る中、花々が残る枝を見上げての撮影でした。
すでに花弁を失った花柄も多く、正真正銘満開の時のものよりも赤色が目立ちがちな写真になりました。
青空と白い花と赤い花柄と茶色い枝…桜の春の営みの一コマです。
