Morning Moods

With me not being a morning person, this photo is the epitome of my morning mood! I love the innocence portrayed in the photo, and in black and white, it creates a classic and timeless composition. The mussed hair, the yawn, and the still-closed eyes is a perfect example of a morning mood. Congratulations to the photographer for the winning photo!

Early morning on a farm or ranch is about about work. There is always work to do, and that work starts early. This photo gives a hint to a daily routine, and portrays a morning mood of responsibility, duty, hard work, and a love of the great outdoors. Congratulations to the photographer for this peek into the life of a modern cowboy.

This photo represents a morning gone wrong! There are those who wake up to fight a battle, whether they are prepared or not. In a humorous way, this photo can relate to those of us who need coffee first thing, and this is our stance until we get it! Congratulations to the photographer for this battle-ready morning mood!

This photo evokes a deep sense of sadness and foreboding that can often come flooding in upon awakening first thing in the morning. The blurred edges cause the eyes to be directed to the center of the photo. At first, the window is the primary focus, but then the woman sitting slump-shouldered on the edge of the bed becomes apparent and, suddenly, the whole photo makes sense. Well done to the photographer for this heart-tugging photo.

Some people wake up loving life, no matter what life throws at them. They approach life with a lighthearted charm, and take every opportunity to live in the moment. Mornings are seen as new chances to create memories, entertain others, and have fun doing it. This photo represents those that can't wait for morning to come, so they can continue to spread their joy. Congratulations to the photographer for this candid shot.
