Old creation given new life

You can't tell but the scene WAS taken one crazy morning in Szentes many moons ago . The apple(s) of course was added later by yours truly.

Story behind this post...
When Mandy requested from a bunch of us for a photo of apple, I remembered this and dug it out from my archive . Then she come up with this haiga which I simply love!

Mandy submited it to an interesting astropoetry project - Newton and the Striking Apple coordinated by Andrei Dorian Gheorghe . This morning, I got news that our work (mainly Mandy's) have been published . Do visit the site, it's an eye opener (for me)

Many thanks to Mandy and Andrei for this opportunity!

Oh, here's wishing all a blessed new year !

Looking up, again

You've seen those chimneys here before.

The wonderful haiga is written by magiceye . He is a cyber friend for 2 years via my first photo sharing site. Only recently that he revealed himself as a poet. Thanks, magiceye for letting me reproduce your work here!

still on 2 weeks ago....

cold water

Haiga ~ Stiff

cold morning
even the limbs of trees

feel stiff

Not much action at the football field (behind the trees), so I compensate with this reflection shot. While the haiga is another collaboration with Mandy . Thanks so much , Mandy!:)

Dry is going..

yesterday's sweat
blown all away
by today's sun

By Mandy Smith*

Laundry service is almost non-existent here since nearly every household owns a washing machine. Before the wet weather takes over, I'm using every bit of the sun shine to clear the laundry :) Happy Sunday!

Word of appreciation :-

*Mandy has been so kind to write me this haiku on short notice. I think she did a great job describing the photo, don't you think?

I spy with my camera...

summer wind pass by

dry leaves run past

sweat drops on the forehead...

Summer break, we shall enjoy the sun, we shall remember this moment next summer and forever! ..ok, will not attempt to sound poetic! haha

** I came across Rajesh's haiku whilst searching online, small world! He has graciously allow me to reproduce the it here. Thanks, Rajesh! You are so talented :)

Haiku, dragon fly, hiatus

*Szentes' dragon fly, my first shot*

continuing from yesterday, whilst searching for poets, I came to know Haiku is popular among Hungarian artists, here's one of the them to compliment the photo :-

Perhaps do not even touch it.
Just look at it, look at it,
until it becomes beautiful.
