9th World Haiku Conference in Parma, Italy

     I was happy and honored when I found out that my haiga was being exhibited at the 9th World Haiku Association Conference in Parma, Italy from Sept. 8-10. My haiga
that Kuniharu Shimizu selected was the one that made it to the finals in the 154th World Haiga Contest in June
     Thanks a lot to Maria Laura Mamiya Valente, a poet friend, who was able to take several photos of the event. I snagged these two photos of her and added Kuni-san's list to make this collage.




     Many thanks to Toni Piccini. He also took some amazing pictures of the exhibit.

World Haiku Association (143rd Haiga Contest)

       Kuniharu Shimizu has mentioned each month he will be selecting haiga with higher criteria both in image and haiku. For this month he accepted 26 out of 58 submissions. I'm happy that my haiga was one of them
