<p>Yuantouzhu, also called Turtle Head Island, is a famous peninsula situated at the northwest side of Taihu Lake, the third-largest freshwater lake in China. It gets the name Turtle Head Island for its huge rocks protruding into the Taihu Lake, appearing as if a swimming turtle tossing its head. Yuantouzhu is endowed with gorgeous natural scenery with green hills and clear water, as well as abundant historical and cultural stories.<br />
From mid-March to mid-April, Yuantouzhu enters its most enchanting season. As cherry blossoms burst into bloom, the entire peninsula transforms into a breathtaking sea of soft pink and white—drawing visitors from across China and around the world. Recognized as China’s premier cherry blossom destination and ranked among the top three globally, Yuantouzhu proudly hosts the vibrant International Cherry Blossom Festival, a joyous celebration of spring’s arrival.<br />
Over 30,000 cherry trees—many of them Japanese varieties—blanket the area. Prime viewing spots include Sakura Valley, Lovers’ Valley, Changchun Bridge, and Ten-Mile Fragrant Lane. Whether you’re strolling beneath fragrant blossoms, cruising on a traditional boat for scenic lakeside views, or hiking up Luding Hill for a panoramic vista, the experience is truly unforgettable. The floral spectacle, paired with the shimmering surface of Taihu Lake, makes this season a highlight of any visit to Yuantouzhu.</p>

<p>Busy afternoon - I had a chance to do some 1:1 photo shoots with lovely models, but I still had time to shoot with other creative masks in San Zaccaria. All in all, a very nice day!</p>

<p>Friday's sunrise event was a misnomer but a photographer's dream. A heavy blanket of fog covered Venice. My favorite setting. The fog creates a special feeling, sounds and smell are so different. Plus, since Thursday was pretty much a washout, there were many masks and photographers out on this morning. What a great experience!</p>
