The third in the series of books of images and haiku concentrates on the Mallerstang Valley in Cumbria, UK, following the earlier Landscape as Haiku<\/em> and River as Haiku<\/em> books. The essay that accompanies the images has the subtitle “The Legacy of Lockdown” because it was during being confined in Mallerstang during the Covid lockdown in 2020, with lots of time to think, that I started to write more haiku.
