When is the best time to shoot the cherry blossoms? I think it’s the blue hour. There is this gorgeous glow that you don’t see at any other time of the day.
PS. I don’t how it happened, but I’m sick 🙁 I’ve been in bed for the past few days and haven’t been doing much else but sleeping. Sorry for the mediocre blog posts.
Going through some of the other shots I got while out taking cherry blossom pics. This one is from before it’s peak. You can hardly make out the cherry trees next to the Jefferson but I thought the clouds and reflection looked totally cool
Weekend Catchup: I took more cherry blossom pictures 🙂
Saturday morning was PACKED! The bridge on Ohio Dr looked cramped by 6am. It was NUTS but so much fun.
I took this image around 6:05a. Luckily I was meeting up with my friend, Manny who saved me a spot right in front of the Martin Luther King Jr Memorial. The water was so calm, perfect for a great reflection shot.
Before the sunrise there was this beautiful purple glow in the sky. I love waking up early and watching the day begin like this.
Typical scene of the tidal basin during cherry blossom season but on a weekday. Weekends- that’s a wholllleeee different story.
Another cloudy day at the Cherry Blossoms in DC yesterday. I decided to just concentrate on close up images of the blooms. I love looking at the little details that make these trees so beautiful.
Even on a cloudy day, the cherry blossoms still look beautiful. But I really hope that the rain we’re expecting in the DC area doesn’t knock the flowers off the branches. I’m having such a great time photographing these trees. I don’t want the fun to stop!!
