What a challenge! Dale at CosPhoCal has asked to turn the everyday in the unusual. What an opportunity to play! But first things first, let’s start with the important ingredient:

Coffee.
The cup of this owl (aka: me) reads: I’m afraid I am awake (I’m awake I’m afraid?) How mundane can it get?

A walk with the dog.

A ride on the bike.

A slice of lemon.

And some healthy apples rife for the picking.
These are the untouched photos that were used:

When I checked my photos from this weekend, I found that I had a two-in-one photo, the guy with the (snazzy) sunglasses and the guy he was looking at.
I had a quick look-see in my archives and discovered that I had a few more sunglasses with reflection photos:

If you didn’t know that the city of Frankfurt has a vineyard of its own, you’re not alone. We didn’t know either. And we certainly didn’t expect to find it 20km outside of Frankfurt, in Hochheim am Main.

This little wood mouse was too early out of its nest, I think, but probably also too late in the year to be born. It was sitting on the side of a path, squeaking loudly but not running away. There was no adult close by, at least not one we could see. We pushed him gently with a stick into the leaves on the side and told it to be quiet.

This is my awake (awoke?) week. It seems I have used up all my awaken (awoken) photos this week already: my awake coffee mug, my cat waking me when it is still dark, even a sunrise somewhere. But I know (and the mirror confirms this) that I will never look as awake as this hare, alert, vigilant, sharp, and wired. I need something to awaken my morning bearing.
