Today we’re wishing you a happy spring with this uplifting collection of images by Ekaterina Georgieva, a Bulgarian photographer who has lived in Japan for the last 12 years.

Here’s what she told us about the symbolism of the exquisite displays of cherry blossoms known as sakura.

‘The Japanese view the blossoming of the Sakura as a new beginning, which they eagerly await. On the other hand, they find their fragility and impertinence enchanting and believe it teaches about the transient nature of life. A graceful and ever so slightly wistful reminder to live in the moment’
