Kagoshima. There is no castle anymore in Kagoshima but the outside walls are still there.
Critics will be very appreciate. Thank you to everybody who has taken time to write a comment.

The blossom there is wonderful, I love the way it overhangs the walkway.

La nature semble s'être "endimanchée" !! ...les couleurs sans aucune tâche vive mais avec cette superbe branche fleurie au premier plan donne une impression gaie mais calme, de sérénité heureuse.

beautiful shot and composition. since you ask for critiques, the only thing that comes to mind is possibly muting the background colors a bit so the flowers in front stick out more, but I'm not sure, it's really just one style of processing.

@danthro: Thank you very much danthro for your suggestion. I did tried a BW version but I didn't like it. I have muted the green foliage in the background and posted again, it is better I think.
I really like the cherry blossoms, they even make these dark castle remnants look cheerful and peaceful.

Lovely blossoms, and a well composed image.

J'adore cette photo. Le contraste entre la renaissance et le béton crée une très forte impression.

That blossom period is all-too-short . . but how it transform a cityscape.
