They're loud tonight. Go and sleep in the other room.

Best on black if you must.
Very artistically done but i feel I shouldn't be looking at this!! I never know how you decide on all your wondrous photos! Will be interested to read the funny comments I know this photo is going to produce!

Restless sleeper! Very well done and looks fantastic on black.
December 15th, 2015  
very cool. I keep trying to figure out all the posses
December 15th, 2015  
@happypat Thanks very much - there's really nothing to see, even if you squint ;)
@dibzgreasley That's one way to put it, and thank you :)
@adi314 Thank you very much - try not to look too hard ;)
December 15th, 2015  
Your demons troubling you. Great image.
December 15th, 2015  
Impressive and unsettling, cool on black indeed :)
December 15th, 2015  
Very cool - I love all the movement... Though I'm sure you weren't a fan of them at 02:42!
December 15th, 2015  
How you must suffer for your art! :-)
December 15th, 2015  
fitful night.
December 15th, 2015  
@overalvandaan They always do, and thank you
@hermann Thanks very much :)
@kerosene Not at all, and thank you
@yrhenwr It's a never ending trial
@blueberry1222 Most of them are...
December 15th, 2015  
I love shots with long exposure ) excellent done!
December 15th, 2015  
I can relate to this only too well. :( Great depiction of restless brain syndrome! :)
December 15th, 2015  
excellently conceived and executed....
December 15th, 2015  
@antsygina Thank you very much :)
@juliedduncan That's the complete problem...the brain is never still
@jack4john Thank you - it will have to do for today as, for some reason, I have no enthusiasm
December 15th, 2015  
Very creative!
December 16th, 2015  
I can relate as well! Very creative!

I'm going to p**s on your parade - I like the image but I don't like this greenish tint you've been using lately... or is it just my iPad that's to blame?
December 16th, 2015  
@vignouse I'm not sure what's going on there - on my laptop, both the apple and HP it's plain old B&W, and yet, on the iPad...greenish tinge. I don't like it either.
@lsanderson55 Thanks very much :)
@radiogirl Thank you kindly, appreciated
December 16th, 2015  
Fidgety, eh?
December 16th, 2015  
Tossing and turning! Very cleverly done.
December 16th, 2015  
I don't mind the tinge of tone... Compelling and intriguing image!
December 16th, 2015  
@northy Thanks very much :)
@888rachel thanks very much :)
@amandal In body and mind...
@vignouse I found it - it would seem that with some of the images, when I've finished with them in LR and drop them in to Picmonkey to add a component that the particular tool I've been using is adding a slight green overlay with no option to desaturate it. At least I learned something today :)
December 16th, 2015  
I can completely relate to this - over and over and over again
executed and achieved
December 16th, 2015  
Wow, this is madly cool.
December 16th, 2015  
@annied Thank you, it's my personal trial at times. I think I managed 2 1/2 hours sleep at most last night.
@yaorenliu Thank you very much :)
December 16th, 2015  
@graemestevens last night was 4 for me...and that's alot....
December 16th, 2015  
hate that! 2.42am
December 16th, 2015  
@brigette I did not approve :(
December 16th, 2015  
In a book I am reading one of the characters likened the thoughts on a sleepless night to be caught in a hamster wheel. Think you've demonstrated that thought very visually.
December 16th, 2015  
Brilliant doouble exposure. I hope they are quiet tonight.
December 16th, 2015  
@joansmor That seems like an accurate way of summing it up - thanks :)
@kategoring Nope, they certainly weren't. And thank you
December 16th, 2015  
another restless night
December 16th, 2015  
Have you tried melatonin? It's a natural sleep remedy. I've used it in the past with some success. Check with your Dr. first, of course. Just a thought! :)
December 17th, 2015  
I sympathise muchly. If all else fails I read my Kindle.
December 17th, 2015  
@golftragic If all else fails I just get up and drink coffee
@juliedduncan I haven't, but I'm a great believer in whisky ;)
@bill_fe And another, and another...
December 17th, 2015  
@graemestevens There's that too. ;)
December 17th, 2015  
Very effective....definitely conveys the restlessness of your disturbed sleep!
December 17th, 2015  
@panthora Thanks very much :)
December 17th, 2015  
@graemestevens @annied
sleep - If you're up for some real hard work and totally committed then take a look at sleepio.com
December 21st, 2015  
@jocasta thank you - will take a look - not sure how committed I will need to be - sometimes I like the wee hours
