Jake RajsCherry Blossoms

this book contains some of the most beautiful photography i have ever seen. breathtaking. it has over 200 pages of cherry blossoms and cherry trees. background scenary also so beautiful. one of my favorites is near the back of the book. it shows some cherry blossoms with golden sunshine upon them which made their color just stunning.i bought this for a friend and she also loved it. you can't not love it. the book also has a few illustrations of cherry blossoms and some quotes, but i would say 90% of the book is gorgeous photograghy. i highly recommend it.

Arrived in good shape. I was so close to the actual Cherry Blossom festival, but physically unable to go. Therefore I read the entire book and enjoyed all the photos as the festival was going on. Lovely piece of work!

I rated this five stars because it has beautiful photos, good condition it came in for a book, I leave the book open to see a page or pages I liked in it. I had to walk to get it. It came in a box with a big bag over it.

My daughter (she's 11) is really into cherry blossoms.I was worried about buying the wrong book for her.But, thankfully I made the right choice.She loved the photos and the poems in this book. She looks through it repeatedly.

Being an amateur shutterbug who has taken many photographs of the cherry blossoms at the Tidal Basin in Washington, I bought this book with a lot of eager anticipation but found myself disappointed. Certainly, there are several photos in the book that are extraordinarily good, but there are also a number of very ordinary images that seem to have been added in as fillers to fatten up the book. Rajis is very good with classical combinations of blossoms and water / blossoms and sky, and the book has some stunning wide-angle shots. Ultimately however, I was left with the kind of anticlimactic feeling you get when you sit down to a fine meal but rise from the table still hungry. The format of the book is partly to blame as well; using a `mini" format for this book means one is essentially looking at an album of 5x7 photos, certainly not a coffee table format that would do justice to the blooms or the panoramic shots. Not much thought seems to have been given either to the poetry verses that dot the book. Most of the photos are from the Tidal Basin in Washington and the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens in New York.

Great photos, very enjoyable.

What a delightful book! It's perfect to look at near bedtime, as it is relaxing and lovely.

Love all the pictures! I purchased this book after visiting DC and fell in love with Cherry Blossoms. Very nice decorative book.

A thin book in terms of substance / no reference to the variety of blossom / location the image was taken.

beautiful little book; shows ornamental cherry trees in all their magnificent glory; just a hint of wording; perfect to hold
