Night Cherry Blossoms

About

At night they are called 夜桜 (yozakura). Many people prefer the cherry blossoms at night, thinking it is more romantic and that the lights make them even more beautiful. When the sky gets completely dark, they do glow nicely.

What do you think? Are they better at night or during the day?

    Gorgeous photo, the lighting and the colours work so well. I’d have to say I think sakura look the most beautiful around twilight in the evening, but my hanami experience is fairly limited and I tend to think just about everything looks best in that light.

      Thanks :) I prefer them during the day, but I know a great many folks who would agree with you!

Thoughts?
