"Wake Up Call"


This photograph was taken one fine morning at the @gardenofeden.  I love the alluring, awakening look which adequately captures the silent enjoyment of her first cup of coffee.


Thanks @jasonrussell for another opportunity
to share some of the moments in time captured through the lens.

When I saw the picture, all that was on my mind
was if the contents in the cup was tea or coffee, I love a good cup of tea. Especially during this harmattan weather.

I think most of us enjoy a hot cup of something, especially during these winter months. I see we were on the same page! Thanks for the comment @chiama.

is he offering us the cup, or is he holding the cup.. Why is his mouth covered so.. I like how this image makes me ask questions..

I love these challenges,i didn't spot this one before.. but I have just the pic to join in with that I took not long ago ..i was was wondering what to do with it .. <3

I love images that make you consider possibility too.

These are great challenges, and give us a great opportunity to share these unusual photos. Now you know--I hope to see what you have in your repertoire @eco-alex!

@everlove Love the black and whites. Interesting choice. Capturing what many consider to be the start of their day (coffee). Thank you for sharing. I sent you a chat message btw. Enjoy your day.

This was a particularly awesome moment in time. Grateful to have the niche to share it.

Steemit Chat has been difficult for me the past few days---just doesn't seem to want to load! Hope to catch up with you sooner or later.

Wow everlove, such an interesting photo: particularly the bokeh on the far right that seems to have cross-patterns inside of it!

I believe that is the window screen behind her. I agree, @charlesmckenzie, t is really cool how that came out in the photography. Good eye! Thanks for the comment.

Nice post.I respect you very much because you contribute to steemit.I will do activities like you.I would like to…

Wise move @jhonsnow2. Steemit is great because we all add value. If we all do our part we will have an amazing experience here.

Very nice photo..

Thanks.

This is a great way to capture the essence of waking up. Great picture!

Thanks @zboyd. I think so too.

Lovely shot! Are you the one in the picture!

No, it's not me. I took the shot--not a selfie!!! Thanks for the comment @frankabelle.

Ok! Nice, it was a great shot!

Excellent photography, very nice art, amazing post, thanks for sharing

Glad you like it @utpolbiswas!

Great photo! When I saw the pic I could image the story of the breakfast. I mean I can hear sounds that her mother cook for her, and call her. Then she is enjoying the breakfast.when they open the door beautiful morning garden is waiting her.:)

I love that you have a story going on about it. Hearing the interpretation of others really makes the photo even more fun! Thanks for sharing those thoughts @happyleona. I smiled when I read your comment!

It looks cool. Nice one.

Thanks @hynet.

Love it! It also says "Leave me alone till I've had my coffee" or "No comment until I've had my coffee" lol Being exposed to so many awesome photographers on Steemit is starting to make me appreciate photography as an art form a lot more.

Recognizing the profound implications of every moment and being present enough to capture it in the blink of an eye is to me, a great art in and of itself. Not to mention the lighting, contrast, textures, composition, colors and surroundings. I'm grateful you are finding value in the photography of these Steemians. They truly are a creative crowd. Thanks for your comment @adammillwardart.
