Ueno Park, Sakura


#1 Picture perfect for this picnic. Wish I could have sat down and joined in.

Beautiful Sakura.


So many people enjoying themselves, whether they were sitting down and drinking or just walking on by.


Japanese life under the Sakura wave


The empty bottles are lined up, the drawings left behind. These guys are probably restocking and will be back soon.



Lots of happy hanami revelers. Most people who drink too much seem to fall asleep.


Rilakkuma slippers waiting for their owners to claim the space.

The sakura trees seem to come together to form a sea of cherry blossoms.


The crowds always come to Ueno Park to see the sakura at this time of year. On a fine, day like today, it can be very busy.

Local Shrine with some nice red color.


Anyone for a flame cooked dango?


A mixture of many things. That bowl looks like it is ready for a clean.


Tasty corn ready to go. Any takers?


These looked really tasty. I realized after I took the photo that the pepper is just coming out of the container and hitting the meat.


The old style buildings in the background blend in nicely with the park scene.


Not the best lens for a closeup shot, but worth a go with some added bokeh.



Bright colored plastic lanterns help to mix up the color.


One of the many temple structures in the area.

Lanterns lit in the afternoon. Great atmosphere.


Not sure what this structures official name is. Anyone know?



Sakura, Sakura .... can just here the song playing in this photo ..... ^_^
