Zeche Zollverein is a former coal mine -- today Zollverein is a place for exhibitions, concerts and many other activities
salt harvest --
the farmer points to
dark clouds
(Mainichi, 2006)
spring wind --
seagulls watching
dockers lunch
(clouds peak, 2006)
sunrise
a swan drinks
color
(Mainichi, 2005)
overcast
old men queuing
for their lunch
(Asahi, 2005)
the snow melts --
stones return
into my garden
(Mainichi, 2004)
daffodils
brought to daffodils
in the chapel
(Asahi, 2004)
hot night
next door
the blues
(Asahi, 2003)

Strong work. I'm glad I ran across your link (comment at Jerry Dreesens' blog). See how close the international haiku community is? -- all connected by the internet. I'll be back.

Enjoyed the photo, and the haiku.
I didn't know about the salt harvest, so thanks for that!
Your lunch haiku reminded me of mine:
warm day ...
the workman lunches
in his wheelbarrow
Snapshot Calendar 2005
And your micro-haiku...
hot night
next door
the blues
,,, is stunning!
Few minimalist or longer haiku carry so much weight as this, absolutely brilliant!

i enjoyed to read your wheelbarrow-haiku, Alan, thank you that you told me about the Snapshot Calendar 2005 and thank you for your kind words about my hot night-haiku
