Category: Haiku

Haiku – as three Line Poem in Japanese Style – expressing the Mood of a Photo.
A Haiku has traditionally three line with 17 Syllables with:
– 5 Syllables on the first Line setting the View,
– 7 Syllables on the second Line focussing the View
– a Turn (Volta) between the second and third Line
– 5 Syllables on the third Line encompassing the Moment of the View: Here and Now.

The process of encompassing a Photo and Haiku has many similarities: a Haiku is eminently suitable for expressing the mood of a Photo that is encompassed Here and Now in two Dimensions within four dimensional Spacetime.
