Haiku is a very short form of Japanese poetry.
Create an image that photographically captures the essence of a haiku. The title of your image should be the haiku.

I think haiku capture the essence of photographs.
I accept the Wikipedia link in its wisdom. (I.E. whatever it says has greater authority than me - surprise). I would add that haiku does not fall foul of pathetic fallacy. It's not obvious how a photograph would do that either, but the tendency to lean on more or less literary cliches and norms is rife.
The old pond
the frog jumps in
plop
infers nothing beyond that which it contains. |

| I love the idea. But perhaps the haiku titles would be too long. How about the key/connecting word being the title, and the haiku being in the photographer's comment. In Raish's example, the title would be "Plop". |

'master of the sky' is an example of pathetic fallacy

Well, it'll keep the wife contented, if that's what you mean? They do love a little poetry now and again.

You mean "martial" and "marital" are not variant spellings of the same word? That explains a lot about how my life went wrong :-)
