This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

That looks a lot like the tree we have in our garden, and I believe that is a Japanese Cherry.

There are parks in Japan that have a ton of the trees in the same park, so when the petals fall there are so many that they make a carpet over the water
