The Third Edition of Santoka International Haiga Contest
It is a great honour to announce that we received 45 submissions from 20 countries for the 3rd Santoka International Haiga Contest.
On this occasion, we have singled out 6 haiga for their profound beauty. They received this year’s awards.

pun prozračnosti
okolo kruže misli

his missing mate
uronjen u plavo…
a negde tamo njegova
nestala ženka
Highly commended

wings flapping
just a little hint of what
tomorrow brings
lepet krila
tek naznaka onoga
što donosi sutra

I follow the path
of a calm river
novi identitet…
pratim stazu
mirne reke
