Actually, there are more than just these three photos for the weekly challenge "My Favorite Things."
There’s a story behind them, but I’ll keep it short.
Very few people enjoy waking up early in the morning, especially when they are warm and comfortable in bed. Looking out the window, it's cold, stormy, and raining—hardly inviting.
But then, there are those rare moments when everything aligns perfectly—the weather, the timing, the light. That’s when I jump out of bed, head to the living room, grab my camera and tripod, maybe even a second prime lens, and get ready for a long trip.
Well, not really that long. I just open the balcony door, set up everything, take a few photos, then head back inside to enjoy some fresh coffee, take a shower, and start my day.
This is one of my favorite things in the morning—waking up, jumping out of bed, and capturing beautiful moments. And the best part? Every day is a little different.
