While the city sleeps

In the centre of Brighton the streets are pretty much heaving all year round, particularly at this time of year when large groups of international students descend upon the city. Sometimes it's worth getting up really early for a peaceful stroll and a coffee before everyone else wakes up. Of course, it's also the best time for snapping up fresh local produce. This particular coffee stop was in the Pavilion Gardens, which is a popular lunch spot with tourists and people working in offices nearby - and you can't beat it for the view of the Royal Pavilion too.
