Pretty in pink, sure, but isn't this too much? by RavenMontoya on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Woah! Look! Such pink! Much cute! Very fluffy! Wow!

I really wanted to catch one of the cats up in one of the Japanese cherry trees again, but the weather has been bad and I've been a bit too tired to make an effort.
However, one day the weather cleared up and I pulled myself together, grabbed the camera and started to stalk the cats, very eager to make them climb the biggest cherry tree, like: "Plz, plz climb the tree!?"
Did they though? Of course not.

The only reason why I finally got any cheery blossom pictures at all was because Felix for some reason chased Tintin up into the tree (picture of that here: Up, up into the pink cloud! ) and I had to hurry, hurry and climb the nearby fence to get up high enough to reach into all the flowers so I could take pictures.
Tintin was kind enough to stay still for a while. Goooood kitty and, yes, so pretty in pink.

This is the same Japanese cherry tree as in these photos.

What a difference a little bit of spring and warmth does, huh?
The photo on the right with Felix is some years old and I didn't shoot in RAW back then. I think it shows. Yay for improving!
