Welcome to the Ligo Haibun Challenge. This week, we have two visual prompts for you to choose. But, before we get to that, let us welcome Penny who has joined the Ligo Haibun panel as a judge.
Now, getting to the visual prompts, the first one belongs to Pirate, our host, and the second photo belongs to Meme from Mixedupmeme. Thank you, Pirate and Meme.
We welcome suggestions for word/phrase or visual prompts.

The special mentions for the previous week’s Ligo Haibun Challenge are:
Bjorn: Don’t let the beauty of nature charm you for death lurks in the corner. Check out Bjorn’s captivating piece on the topic, ‘Dewdrops’.
Anja: Sensual prose with a lovely haiku. Welcome to the Ligo Haibun Challenge, Anja!
Yarnspinnerr: Informative haibun; the prose intrigues you with its cultural and spiritual knowledge and the haiku complements it very well.
So nice. I hope to join for the next. This is a busy week for me 🙂
All the best everyone

Hello Nightlake! Thank you for asking me to join the panel, I am honored. Also a special congratulation to you for being selected for the Haibun Today magazine. You are so very deserviing! The photos for this week’s haibun look to be quite an interesting challenge. I have a hunch we will have a few more entries than last week and am looking forward to reading all of them with pleasure.
