📸【Cherry Blossom Photography Tips】
🔹 Use a large aperture lens (such as f/1.8 or above) to create a dreamy bokeh effect.
🔹 Shoot from a low angle with the sky as the background.
🔹 The soft light of dawn and dusk is perfect for capturing cherry blossoms, especially when the sunlight filters through the petals.
🔹 Light-colored clothing complements the cherry blossoms and makes for better photos.
