The AppleHouse haiku & ginko pictures

The following images come from the Saturday June 9th 2007 haiku workshop in Kent, South East England:
A LONG POET'S GUIDE TO HAIKU:
THE APPLEHOUSE HAIKU & GINKO WORKSHOP
No previous experience of writing or reading haiku was necessary.



The AppleHouse workshop studio is one of the nicest places I've ever workshopped in! The students were excellent too!



The nearby oast house, and some of the insects. I also saw a fox cub come out from the orchard and pose for a couple of seconds but I'd foolishly switched my camera off.




These two students are excellent examples of becoming immersed in wabisabi.



Unfortunately I had to drag them back to the studio so we could hear their haiku!



This is Lynne Rees, who organises the AppleHouse poetry workshops, absorbing the atmosphere for writing haiku.
