This is a test post using Flickr directly to my blog. A good choice of photos if I do say so myself…

A little background about the photo. It was taken in the Spring of 2004 courtesy of Ms. Grace Deng on a “fest” filled saturday on the UVA campus in Charlottesville, Va. While walking from the Sikh cultural show to Japan Day I saw these fallen cherry blossoms (jap. hana or sakura) and scurried up onto the hill and the rest is photostream history.
