Playing with Gemini, Early Bird Min-Hai Cherry Blossom Festival 2026🌸

Spring is approaching again this year.
I wonder if it's already spring for many of you in your regions?

A fun project is starting where we can enjoy cherry blossom viewing together no matter where we are~🌸

🌸Min-Hai Cherry Blossom Festival 2026🌸

Why not join in the cherry blossom viewing mood with

✨haiku, tanka, senryu, or dodoitsu✨
or
✨a short story✨
(about 600 to 1000 characters)

themed around 'cherry blossoms'?

☘️Please include an 'image of cherry blossoms or cherry blossom viewing' somewhere in your article

Have the cherry blossoms already bloomed in your area?
When you go to the shops, they are already overflowing with spring🌸
I'm looking forward to seeing lots of spring images!

This time, I tried playing with Gemini.
(I just asked Gemini to create an image)
Since this is an early bird post, please forgive me for writing about spring instead of cherry blossoms (o_ _)ｏ))
It's super fun when you try it!

Starting with this one I wrote two years ago

Spring melancholy, an afternoon of squeezing whipped cream tightly

Spring shower just one step before the goal

Spring, returning home after getting annoyed by a couple

It's something like this.
For the actual event, I might compose something about cherry blossoms and play with Gemini again🤭

Lots of cherry blossom photos🌸
Thank you🙌

For those wondering what 'Min-Hai' is.

At the time, I was so absorbed that I didn't realize how difficult it was, but we really did quite a lot (lol).
When it came to haiku, tanka, and senryu, almost everyone was an amateur.
Perhaps that's why it was such a fun festival.
It's filled with so much kindness and memories.
We laughed a lot and were moved a lot.
I am truly grateful that those connections continue like this even now.

By the way, when I asked for an image of the 'Everyone's Haiku Tournament,' this is what it created (lol).

The festival starts tomorrow!
