Day One: Water

* Photography means “drawing with light.” When you take a picture with your camera, you use and record light to create an image. When we’re out and about, we often use the sun — our most abundant light source — to capture our scenes.
* For today’s poem, experiment with haiku — a short poetic form that works particularly well with nature-themed poetry.
o The haiku is a Japanese verse in three lines. Line one has 5 syllables, line 2 has 7 syllables and line three has 5 syllables. Haiku is a mood poem and it doesn’t use any metaphors or similes. Usually when Haiku is taught the students are only given the restriction of the number of lines and syllables.

“Nothing is softer or more flexible than water, yet nothing can resist it” Lao Tzu

Dark Liquid

Still water on ground
Dark cloud let it fall down
Light nowhere found
