Okinawa Hai Society


Congrats to MA of Organique Photo for representing SPRING this week. Abby (last weeks featured photographer) and I decided that this photo was very spring like indeed! Mariann took this photo whilst on a hop to Tokyo.

Over to Mariann - I'm a natural-light on-location photographer. I've been on-island for exactly a year. I shoot with a Nikon D80 and this shot is with a 50mm 1.4. The blossoms are in Tokyo JP just a few weeks ago. The trees there are so different from the Sakura here. There, the trees are huge, with dark bark and dark pink buds, but bright white blossoms. They're so beautiful when the wind blows, it looks like it's snowing petals. They were everywhere- in our hair, our purses, even got into our shoes!
Thanks for all who submitted images :o)

The new theme this week is SUNSETS (thanks Abby). Please tag your images sunsets, to see (note the difference in the tagging, NO DATE!)

SUNSETS submissions are due by midnight Okinawa time on Friday, May 1st. The chosen photo will be announced on Monday, May 3rd.
