A grey sky with a bright patch where the sun should be: it's behind bright clouds. There's a ring around the sun, sliding off to the right. In the foreground, a winter tree and a chimney. NB this is a colour photo...
A blurred, fuzzy sun | in a hazy spring sky, with | distorted halo #daikyhaiku
A male statue seen side-on (its hip level is my eye level): there's a fig leaf over the carved genitals, but everything is clearly visible from this angle
A well-placed fig leaf | at Sir John Soane's Museum | polite, not censored #daikyhaiku

quickly shifting clouds

Graffiti on the railway arch, with Merry Christmas and a Christmas tree among other elements. The left of the photo is sunlit and there's a scrap of blue sky at top left. Actually taken 19DEC25: meant to post sooner.
Deptford graffiti | belated festive greetings | always something new #daikyhaiku
for over forty
years we’ve watched on Christmas Eve.
redemption anew.

Peachy white cirrus cloud against a blue sky: a round church turret and a leafless tree
Winter afternoon | off to Battersea in search | of kinder dentists #daikyhaiku

A tabby cat loosely curled, anticlockwise, on a grey velvet blanket. His paw is over his eyes, showing his white muzzle. Back toes curled...
A grim evening | hurrah for heated blanket! | Watching 'Frankenstein' #daikyhaiku
A blurry photo of the moon through haze / light cloud, with about 20% eclipsed - below, a line of streetlights (the A2)
Partial eclipse over Blackheath | too much cloud earlier, but | we went to the pub... #daikyhaiku #eclipse
i am a fat bear / in the woods, yearning for a / simple meet ‘n’ greet #daikyhaiku #TARGO

Beneath the fruit trees,
Where long grass strives for moisture
Ladybirds in droves.

songs. we’ll smile. we’ll know that it
has all been worthwhile.

gladly wear it). can you give
me a role to play?

They seized the moment.
