haiku illustration

Ray Rasmussen, Alberta, CA - Photo Haiku

Comment by Roderick Stewart: Excellent, clean photo with the moon's reflection in the pond and a bonus of a treeline pointing to lily pads which, in turn, lead to the haiku. Nice detail in highlights and shadows (which become a black background for the haiku). The lily pads seem to rise from the surface of the image; they add an extension to the haiku, as if they are witnesses or participants, or as if they're the moon's footsteps promenading the pond. The typeface is clear, and goes well with the lily pads.
