This week has been raining like the dickens here in Tokyo – I'm glad I was able to get out the previous 2 weekends and shoot the cherry blossoms before they were all washed away.
This shot was taken in Yanaka, the site of a fairly large cemetery in the Nippori area. It's usually a quiet and peaceful place, but the crowds come out during the time of the sakura/cherry blossoms. However, you can still find some moments of quiet if you venture off the main road.
