For her photo-haigas she received excellent reviews on the competitions organized on the internet (www.worldhaiku.net/haiga) by The World Haiku Association.\ \ In year 2004 she published her first collection of poetry titled 'Dotaknuta snom' (Touched by a Dream). Her third book, the love free-verse 'Zapletena u mreže' (Entangled into Nets) is being prepared for publishing as well. \ \ Silvija has taken part in many competitions, both as a poet and photographer in Croatia and abroad (Japan, UK, France and Italy). The island Lošinj and the heart of the Slavonian plain where she lives, are her constant inspiration. She adores horses and watches them in her own way through the objective of her camera. Her photographs can bee seen on the internet photo galleries and sites. She is a member of the 'Photo-Club Djakovo', The Association of the poets 'Antun Ivanoši?' in Osijek and World Haiku Association in Japan.\ \ \ ( contact / silvijabutkovic@gmail.com )
