Reluctant

to wake up.  Many flowers close up for the night (e.g. daisies, convolvulus) and in the cool dawn I snapped the main image and later in the day came back with a 50mm lens and X4 filter to catch the same flowers open.

       Kiki enjoys her early morning walks by the river which have been sporadic lately because of TdF. Short course today but including two massive climbs. Tadej Pogacar is amazing gaining three jerseys - yellow, white and polka dot today. Rooting for Mark Cavendish to win tomorrow's stage.
