Capturing Korea's Cherry Blossom Beauty Before the Rain


As the last few days of spring approached, I couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness that the cherry blossom season was coming to an end. The beautiful pink and white flowers that adorned the trees were a true wonder of nature, and I knew that I had to capture their beauty one last time before they withered away due to the heavy rain that was forecasted.




I woke up early on the morning of the predicted rain and headed to the park where the cherry blossom trees stood tall. The sky was overcast, and the air was thick with the smell of rain. As I walked through the park, I couldn't help but notice the petals of the cherry blossoms starting to fall off, creating a soft pink carpet on the ground.




I found a cherry blossom tree that had not yet been ravaged by the rain and positioned myself beneath it. As I looked up, I was amazed by the beauty of the flowers that were still intact, and I knew that I had to capture this moment before it was too late.




I took out my camera and started snapping away, trying to capture every angle of the tree and its flowers. The soft, pink petals seemed to glow against the dark sky, and I was determined to capture that beauty in my photographs.





As I was taking photos, I noticed a group of people walking towards me, all carrying umbrellas. They were also there to take photos of the cherry blossoms before the rain destroyed them. We exchanged friendly smiles and started to chat, sharing our love for the beauty of the cherry blossom season.




As the rain started to pour down, I knew that it was time to wrap up my photography session. I took one last look at the cherry blossom tree, feeling grateful that I was able to capture its beauty one last time before it withered away.




In conclusion, taking the last cherry blossom photo of the year was a memorable experience for me. I was able to appreciate the beauty of nature and capture it in my photographs, all while making new friends who shared my passion. It reminded me that beauty can be found even in the most fleeting of moments, and that it's important to appreciate and cherish them while they last.

Amateur Product Photography: Tips and Results

How I Created Pseudo Close-up Product Photos with My Nikon Z5 and 24-200mm Lens I suddenly wanted a Z 105 MC lens. However, my photography skills are not yet at the level where I can utilize all the features of a high-end lens and micro lens, so I decided to settle for playing around with the 24-200 lens to combat shortcuts. The 24-200mm lens has a shortest shooting distance of 0.5m at 24mm and 0.7m when zoomed to 200m. Obviously, it's not a short distance, so it's difficult to take a photo by holding the lens incredibly close to the subject as the dictionary definition of close-up, but if you zoom in and hold the object large, you can take a large photo at a relatively close distance, so it's not a full-fledged close-up, but it's a pseudo(?) close-up.
