Sakura (Cherry Blossoms) Part 2 in Newark, NJ, 2015

すっかり季節は夏になりつつありますが、紹介したい桜の写真がまだまだあるので更新します。今回は桜の花びらを中心にご紹介。
It's getting warmer, though, I update this article because I have many pictures of beautiful cherry blossoms. In this time, I'd like to introduce you the petals of cherry trees.

まだつぼみが少しある状態だったけど一部の桜は満開を迎えていました。日本で見る桜よりも華の色が濃い気がする。品種が違うんだろうなぁと思います。
The cherry trees wasn't full bloom; however, it was so beautiful since some of them were blooming. The flowers of cherry trees in NJ looked deeper in color than in Japan. I was wondering if they were a different variety from Japanese one.

こちらは先ほどのものより更にピンクの色が濃い桜。この公園、お花見客はいるものの日本でお花見するのと比べるとゆったり花を見ることが出来たように思います。
This one is deeper in pink color than the previous one. There were some people seeing cherry trees, though, it seemed for me that we could see them more comfortably compare to seeing them in Japan because it wasn't so crowded.

この写真は個人的に最も気に入っています。桜の色のグラデーションがキレイだなぁと思って。この写真、遠近感も出たなぁと思っています。
This pic is the most favorite one for me since the gradation of cherry's color is so amazing. I think this pic is given perspective.

この木はつぼみもあるし、花びらもあるし葉もつき始めているし不思議だなぁと思って撮影してみました。桜も生きているんだなぁと痛感。
This tree was unique for me since it has buds, flowers, and leaves. That's why, I shot this pic. I realized that cherry trees also live as well as human beings.

* These photos were taken on April 18, in Branch Brook Park, Newark, NJ.
