    Our Buddha Nature

    Sunrise this past Sunday morning

    haiku is not a poem,
    it is not literature;
    it is a hand beckoning,
    a door half-opened,
    a mirror wiped clean.

    It is a way of returning to nature,
    to our moon nature,
    our cherry blossom nature,
    our falling leaf nature,
    in short,
    to our Buddha nature.

    I normally crop all my landscapes in 16 x 9 but this image is cropped in 16 x 10. It’s a subtle difference. So, fair warning as I may be on a new kick for awhile.

    A New Crop

    And, no I’m not talking about corn or wheat. Some times we need to get in close to eliminate distractions. I posted this image previously here and now with a slightly different crop. I found the door hinge to be distracting so I eliminated it. What do you think?
