Some Haiku from South America

Drizzle of white foam

Falling into the jungle

But eagles soar high

A country airport

All green around and tranquil

Safe boy and football

Clouds from far away

Shadows moving on the ground

While drinking a tea

Massive rock baking

The wind howls in the willow

Siesta with mate

White clouds and grey clouds

Dashing across the blue sky

Donkey looking down

Through the high mountains

A sandstorm out of nowhere

And vultures circling

Still some snow on top

The vastness of greyish rocks

Above the condor

Jasmine buds open

Fragrance and snow capped mountains

Missing the condor

The snow capped Andes

And Santiago city

Greeting each other

The sunny city

By the end of day’s turmoil

Some tranquillity

Old men at chess boards

Younger men to play a tune

Sun is dipping down

Araukarias

Shading the park San Martin

Birds picking on ground

Setting sun

On the plan’s wings

Clouds moving, too

Carpe Diem Haiku Writing Techniques No. 17 Leap Linkage

Pitch dark

Striking a match

To stumble

Straight ahead

The winding road

Until it’s even

The rough waves

End in a roaring surf

To roll back

Carpe Diem No. 850 Tsengel (volcano)

Sitting snow covered

Meditating in silence

Sudden satori

The clouds are difting

Snow is falling, then resting

Volcano in peace

Carpe Diem Haiku No. 849 Yaks

The yaks are grazing

Meadow full of white margin spurge

Ready for the trail

Around the yurts

The yaks scatter

No fear of vultures

Meadows left behind

Rock and ice are now the trail

Prayer flags above

Carpe Diem Haiku Writing Techniques No. 13 Riddle

The tree’s scattering

Its’ golden leaves on the ground

Naked as the moon

The circling pidgeons

Whether they go or return

Who knows might not tell

Rain out of a cloud

Now that the cloud disappears

It keeps still raining

Carpe Diem Haiku Special No. 171 Cor van den Heuvel's "baseball"

Passing the kid’s ground

Too occupied to see them

Too occupied, too

Catcher in the rye

Too late for a decent game

But not for the bat

Moon covered by clouds

Working much with the eclipse

Tired now, snoring

A kind of selfie during the night

Day before yesterday night I went to one of my favourite spots in Cologne. You walk there through a small forest in pitch darkness and reach a meadow. I've tried out a new camera. Exposure time for the following two pictures has been one minute. 

After starting the camera, I quickly went in front of the camera and raised my arms and stayed there for about ten seconds, the I've darted away behind the camera. I like the effect.

In this picture you can see an airplane crossing the sky to the nearby airport (CGN).
