Nagasaki Sakura - The Survivors - An explosion of cherry blossom
smb posted a gallery image in Members Albums - Index Page
From the album: Cherry Blossom
I wasn't able to talk to these two old ladies at a park outside the Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum. I don't know if they were anywhere near Nagasaki at the time of the atomic bomb - or if they are even Japanese... Anyhow, they look old enough to have been around for the last 60-odd years and they certainly looked and acted like Japanese. Whatever... I find this image with the cherry tree in full bloom - seemingly erupting from beneath the ground - an extremely powerful image...

Photographing the Photographer outside the Nagasaki Peace park
smb posted a gallery image in Members Albums - Index Page
From the album: People Photography and Street Scenes
That was me photographing the photographer! When I uploaded this, over 18 years ago, I referred to the photographer as an Old Japanese man. Now, at the time of writing, (October 2024), I am 66 years young myself! When editing this image description, I also realized that the Photographer could well be Korean, Vietnamese - or even an American Citizen, for all I know! So here we go, with an updated, (2024) description of this image... A spritely young man taking pictures of "sakura" (cherry trees) in full blossom, in the Peace Park outside the Atomic Bomb Museum in Nagasaki, Japan Photo taken in spring - (cherry blossom season - obviously!) - 2006© Photo by Vic Rolfe.
