Back in the day, when I was working, I was a morning person. I still am, but to a lesser extent.
Morning to me means quite a number of things, but one is coffee (and frequently a boiled egg)
when I can stir myself, I do like a good dawn image
Dawn sun
And being up early, you can see a place waking up, as here with an old lady off to fetch her morning bread in Tarascon, Provence
Tarascon, 7 am, off to the bakers
and these nuns up shortly after dawn in Córdoba
Linked to Lens artists challenge at Ann Christine’s here
Coffee, dawn, Tarascon (though I lived near different one, Tarascon-sur-Ariège), Córdoba. Perfect.
Pleased you think so, Margaret. Tarascon-sûr-Ariège is a new one on me…..
It’s a charming town near where we lived. https://www.france-voyage.com/cities-towns/tarascon-sur-ariege-36285.htm
Oh, I looked it up and it looks lovely. And I see it’s sur not sûr!!
Quite right. I don’t know how I allowed that to creep in. I’m forgetting all my French.
No, you were right all along…I wrote sûr in a comment
I am Definately not a morning person, there are exceptions; camping in the desert being one.
Wake and the morning dew, clear sky and cold brisk air before the heat sets in…. bliss, especially with the first coffee 🙂
Sounds good! I remember September mornings on car rallies, up early with the dew and cold air….
Lots of food for thought here Sue. Loved your images and coffee is a MUST for me in the mornings! The older woman heading out for bread is a wonderful, storytelling image.
Yes, I still remember that morning in Tarascon, and creating the ‘storytelling image’, Tina!
Love that old lady in Provence!!!!
One of those serendipitous shots!
The perfect combination, Sue.

Many thanks, Janet!
My body clock has gone haywire, not even sure what day it is?
I haven’t drunk coffee for at least twenty years, I prefer a mug of tea!
À chacon son goût!!
Earl Grey pour moi
Fair enough, Earl Grey is my go-to afternoon brew
Good choices for the challenge, Sue. I haven’t had to get up that early since I retired, so I don’t! 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.
I don’t very often!
Love the coffee and egg image. It’s tempting me to go back and redo breakfast.
Glad to be of inspiration, Anabel! So what is your morning start?
Cereal, fruit and toast normally. Porridge at the weekend. Not had a boiled egg for ages, it seemed very tempting.
😄😄
Lovely morning memories, Sue! The sun shining in on that beautifully set table is oozing with harmony.
Thanks, Ann Christine! Oozing with harmony….I like it!

Ann??.
Great photos. Well done.
Many thanks, John!
I’m a morning person, too 🙂
Love the image of Tarascon.
Thank you, Ana! That Tarascon image is one of my favourites…
Sue, I really like your first picture with the sunlight on your table cloth and what is left from your yummy breakfast!
Thank you, Sylvia! 😊😊
I admire early risers. I’m more of a sunset person myself and can count on one hand the number of times I’ve seen a sunrise, usually when I’ve had to get up early for a departure. I’m told I miss a lot and I’m willing to accept this but oh, I love my late nights when I’m reading into the wee small hours or catching up on some TV drama I’ve missed. Breakfast, at whatever hour, is always cereal and berries, from my garden in summer and from wherever I can source them in winter.
Well, we’re all different….
