deep blue duboka plavet
the boats drift through brodice su noene
a fishy smell kroz miris ribe

a man drifting ovjek se skie
the soft breeze slips through meki mu vjetri prolazi
his hair kroz kosu

Let's try making haiga!
Haiga are in simple terms pictures with haiku. We'd like you to have a go at producing some haiga! These might be photo-haiga - where you write a haiku to go with a photograph or haiga where you make a picture to go with a haiku!
We'd like you to try using one of the graphics or imaging programs that your computer has to make some haiga.
Your workshop leader will show you how to use the program if you've not used it before. Try to keep things simple. Sometimes the best haiga contain images and pictures that don't quite exactly describe each other but when put together seem 'just right' and take the viewer 'somewhere else' - here's one using one of my haiku from our walk in Oswestry combined with a photograph that one of the students took as I was being interviewed by the BBC man - remember him?
