Your haikus are always excellent. This photo had me wanting to take a vacation, just beautiful.
The white boat looks very pleasurable to see the sights!
Gemma, you really captured the tint of the urban landscape. I used to live in NYC down the block from the Dakota Hotel, and sometimes the grey of the cement perfectly matched the grey of the city sky. A nice memory, thanks. Amy

So peaceful, and your words are like a poem.
Thats a beautiful view! :)
I love your haiku. "sleeping urban space". I don't usually think of urban spaces as sleeping but you've found it and expressed it beautifully with words and photo.
Great shot and lovely haiku!
Thanks for sharing;o)
