in full bloom

This street is lined with many cherry trees for a few hundred meters. When I was looking at several trees with my camera in my hand, a stranger talked to me. This was another extra communication , this time from an amateur photographer.
"The problem with cherries is, they look very boring when photographed," I said.
"True," he replied, "you often fail to embrace the subtle colour. They look almost black and white. So the best way to avoid it is to take pictures of other kind of flowers!"
He was like fifty years old, and said he had been a camera-lover since he was five. He showed me some of his pics on his camera phone, and they were beautiful.
I showed some of my pics, too, and this one is one of them.
