  1. The 2nd haiku is my favorite – drawing us from our focus on the fruit to the wider scene, with its serenity rippled by the plaintive pheasant call : ) Perfect!

    1. Thank you so much for your kind words dear Laurie 💜 I decided to keep the earlier photographs and haiku aside for a sequence once the blackcurrant was ripe for harvest as it is such an amazing process to witness 🙂💖 xxx
