ageing

dying cherry blossoms on a branch against the blue sky and a green tree
fading

I revisited our lovely cherry blossoms from my last post. The vibrance of their youth is quickly decaying to more muted tones. I think they look even more beautiful.

The transparence of the dying petals gives the flowers an otherworldly appearance: ethereal and elegant. The brown at the edges of the blossom on the right only makes the pink more radiant as the sun shines through it. Angelic.
