Challenge: Good (Basic Editing*)
Camera: Olympus SP-350
Location: Payson, UT

 Taken in my room. Edited the brightness and contrast a bit. The reason i chose sleep is no matter what you are, or what you do, you always need sleep! Sleep is always a good thing!

Post Challenge:
I really liked this photo, but it being my first ever challenge entry, i can see what I needed to change:
1. The focus was out, because I was using a timer and it focused on the ground instead of the bed.
2. Should have cropped out the floor. After all the comments I have recieved on DPC, i have noticed that almost everyone hates my shag carpet..except me. So i need to keep that in mind.
3. Too bright, needed to keep the tones down.

Thats all I have to say!

Sleep is awesome. I try to get as much of it as I can! Thanks for posting to the Take Your Shame thread -- I bet if you did this shot again using your comments received as a guide it would rock the DPC world! :)

Really nice hues: a vaguely warm, yellow desaturation look.

I like the soft colors used in this photograph. It gives the photo a very serene, calming, feel to it. Nice job.

For the subject and title, the light is too bright. If you shoot it in the dimmed light you would've achieved better mood. The connection to the challenge is clear. I wish you took it from a different angle, to avoid the carpet.
