I bet not many of us know there are a few locations in Hong Kong which do have sakura blossom! The Kwan Tai Temple (關公忠義亭) at Cheung Chau is one of them. The good thing about the Cheung Chau blossom is that it's timing is quite stable and if you can go during a weekday like me then you won't have to fight with many other visitors to get a nice place for photography.
This is however the first time for me to take Sakura. One of my friend told me that Sakura without a blue sky is hard to take. I fully agree with his comment after this attempt. It's much harder to grasp a nice composition and to get the right exposure without a blue sky.
While going to Japan for sakura blossom may takes you 4-5 days of annual leave, going to Cheung Chau may only takes you half or at most 1 day of...you know...sick leave. Do give it a try next year!
