For those still in snow, have faith. Just a reminder that spring will come … the annual show of cherry blossoms by the river in Portland.

I really like the arcs of composition in this … the sweep of the river from foreground to background, the dominant concrete circular sidewalk … the blossoms are just frosting on this well-done cake. And it’s snowing where I am, god damn it.
Yeah, it really is all about the arcs, isn’t it? Amazing when you consider how many there are, yet they all seem to be okay with each other. I wonder if that’s a natural state of things with arcs, whereas rectangles and circles may challenge each other.
Not just arcs, but gentle arcs and an integration of the man-made with the natural contours of the natural. Gorgeous.
