Look! Cherry Blossoms Captured in Photos

click thumbnails for larger pics

We watched the cherry blossom petals blowing off the trees like a pink spring snow yesterday and were sad that the spring phenomenon was so fleeting. For a way to keep the local vibe blooming year round — besides print options on tile, pillows and more — we are going to frame professional photographs of the cherry blossoms on our walls.

National Geographic sells prints framed or unframed, but we also found some prints by locals that sell photographs of the seasonal flowers. One of these very large photographs would look great in a bathroom, kitchen or living room. We're partial to the more artsy and less touristy of the options.

I just put up pictures of the cherry blossoms in my Seattle neighborhood. Certainly nothing professional, but lovely all the same!

I had a giclee print of my own cherry blossom photo made and framed by pictureframes.com. I use that same shot as my profile photo on Facebook.
