From 2 to 12 May 2009 is when plum grove (梅林) of Hiraoka Park (平岡公園) of Sapporo, Hokkaido, opens for visitors. I went for shooting...
It's so out of my expectation that besides the many beautiful flowers which satisfy my sense of sight, the air at the park is scented with plum aroma, thus the whole shooting experience is very relaxing... well, I've experience shooting flowers like lavender, sunflower, cherry, lotus... but to be able to smell it while shooting is a very 1st experience. Simply wonderful... I can't find words to describe...
(I should have bring a poet with me next time)
I don't think the white one (below) is plum too, but that didn't concerns me; As long as it makes good photography subject, it' fine. There are people who went for picnic, while these (below) are teachers and children of child care center or the same sort went exploring the park... They run, they climb, they roll, and chasing their teacher went marry go round the plum tree :)
Why teachers and parents in Malaysia love to have children lock inside the house and class room? Is it trying to protect the children out of love? or is it the easiest way to do? or they too would love to do the best but just don't know how?
One must not miss at the park is what follows...
Yes, the limited edition plum flavor soft cream. Not only soft cream is sale at the park, there are also foods like hot dog, chicken, etc... As I went at early morning, so had my breakfast there with chicken stick and hot dog, then followed by a plum flavor soft cream.
I left the park at noon, and by the time walking out of the plum grove, I can still taste the flavor of plum soft cream, at my lips...
