Cherry blossom season in Japan is rightly famous and on a gorgeous Spring Sunday it seems everyone is out and about in Tokyo's Shinjuku Park.

I watched model and photographer for a while before seeking their agreement to take some shots of my own. I particularly love the shadows of the blossoms on her face.
