Swans and Seagulls

Swans and Seagulls

I am parked up ready to run a Ginko Photowalk tomorrow

Tomorrow its with the RPS Travel Group

But today it was a solitary walk

When I take a photograph that really interests me I often write a little haiku. I write them in three lines of 5/7/5 syllables. They do not have to rhyme, they do not have to describe the photograph, they are simply what the image led me to write. I only allow myself 60 seconds to write it. It is about being in the moment of seeing the photograph, just as my photographs are made in the moment of seeing.

hear the leaves twinkle
trees dripping with autumn rain
swans and seagulls wait

In a haiku world a ginko is a walk through nature observing

and as I ginko I make images of the things I notice

I then write a haiku in a moment as a response the images I make, that makes me stop to think

Finally I blog here about what the image and haiku make me think about
