(Video link here.) The dazzling last gift of cherry and other trees in-flower right now is the “snow” that falls once the blossoms begin to die. We find ourselves walking under lovely showers of petals and finding wondrous patterns of them on the ground…

We’ve been watching them fall…on people on their way to work, sitting on park benches…the guys on the corner playing dominos,
The falling/fallen blossoms have their own surprising beauty…
Beautiful photos. I especially love the white flowers on storm drain cover (is that what it is?).
Yep it’s a storm drain cover…transformed! (My to my surprise and delight.)
