The evening filled
With colourful lights
Cool wind chilled
Time to head inside
The Aquarium a choice
Listening to sealife’s voice

Palma Nova
The sweetest Rosa
Of the island Mallorca
Welcomes
The weary traveler
A world’s passenger

Feeling very entertained
Passing the mountain chain
And the flattest of plains
There is nothing mundane
About this trip across the domain

Sharks swimming in tanks
Where a ship had sank
Luminescent jellyfish
But not served as a dish
Enjoying the night life
Of this little town in south

Colourful and vibrant
Like a water hydrant
The little village by the sea
No better place to be

Come,
And take a load off
Forget all that scoff
Enjoy the sunny beach
Watch the waves breach

Taking a ride on a train
On this island of Spain
Driving down a narrow lane
Watching the local terrain
Sun is shining, no rain
Sipping on champagne

Day Six: “Landscape” — Crop Your Image
Today, let’s walk in the footsteps of masters like Ansel Adams and focus on landscape photography.
Landscapes generally focus on wide, vast depictions of nature and all of its elements, from formations to weather. In this genre of photography, you won’t find much of a human presence: nature itself is the subject. A focus on nature isn’t mandatory, however — you can also capture a sweeping panorama of a city.

My homestead
My homestead
Where I get rested
Where I can clear my head
The place where I am fed
And each night
Go to bed

Day Six: “Solitude” — The Rule of Thirds
Today, let’s capture solitude: the state of being alone, or a lonely and uninhabited place. What does this word look like to you?
“Solitude standing” Suzanne Vega
One Winter’s Day
Break time
Nothing but time
On my hands
No other plans
Cool sea breeze
My hands freeze
Trying not to sneeze
Uttering, “please”
Let this break
Be over soon!
