    To see a World in a Grain of Sand
    And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
    Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
    And Eternity in an hour

    What with my just having returned from Japan, you would think I'd had enough of cherry blossoms...but no.

    This was beautiful...really a visual and aural treat. Thanks for sharing it with us!

    very cool .... I wanted to ask ... if the frames were taken at such intervals and over 8days? ... was the camerea mounted there for the duration? ... or put back on a mount in the location? .... admire your patience.
  • The camera was mounted there for the duration. I never touched it. It was in a weatherproof box with a plexiglass front.

    It does look like it gets bumped a time or two, however, but with the bustling crowds that was to be expected.

    Thanks for asking!
