Hey folk. As some of you know, I'm back at university studying urban design (the perfect course for any flaneur out there). So - just for this year - I've swapped photographing little things like bees for learning how to draw cities with actual, ink-filled pens.
Somehow, while I've been away, this blog has become far more popular than I could ever have imagined. So to say thanks for visiting and following Australian Haiku, here's one of my favourite bee photos from an earlier post. Cheers, Dalloway
10,/10 for the bee and for you blog.

hmmm... with the title 'Australian Haiku' and a listing at THF, I'm surprised that you're surprised. Could it be that some might expect a representative collection of haiku by Australian haiku writers under such a title, rather than the haiga of one person?
It is lovely, as is the angle in this photograph lol it's beautiful Emma :)
ReplyDeleteI am stoked I stumbled across your blog site. There is much I can learn from it. As in becoming more versed at poetry. Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteHi Lorin
ReplyDeleteYou are one of my favourite haiku poets. Im honoured to see you here.
Ive thought of a million better names for this blog (mostly involving bees), but Im a little stuck with Australian Haiku now.
Take care.
Hi Lorraine and welcome Hybrid. Thanks for your thoughts.
ReplyDeleteI have just this minute submitted my last essay for the semester. Im looking forward to catching up on everyones sites (but only after Ive ventured outside to enjoy a sunny winters day).
Cheers,
Dalloway
hmmm Hybrid appears to be an advert... I'll assume your a car loving poetry enthusiast???
ReplyDelete__Ahhhhh pen and ink... that forgotten art of drafting; paper, T squares, 30/6o's and french curves! So real... feeling an idea and watching it come to life as you push that form through your pen... to the paper!
ReplyDelete__Glad to be able to say__ Hello Emma! _m
And hello Magyar!!! You must have written so much while I was away. I'll drop by.
ReplyDeletebeautiful image and haiku! will visit again --
ReplyDeleteGreat photograph, and a haiku full of empathy. I used to have problems shrinking a photograph with embedded fonts. My idea: first shrink, then add.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes
Ralf
