Description okay, more sakura! i have way more pics of sakura than this. lol
took this one in kameido, on the way to the station~
they were having a 'hana-mi' thing, and all the trees lining the walkway were in full bloom.
pretty, although the ones in hiroshima win hands down for color of the blossoms.

Nice colors and angle, what exactly have you done in PS CS2?

akira-shock In reply to drejl [2007-05-09 22:02:06 +0000 UTC]

I did some contrast/brightness changes, to make it more vivid looking.
then did some photo filters, once using blue, then deep yellow.
used overlay gradient tool to make the center lantern stand out...and i don't remember the rest
sorry~!
