Pre-challenge:
Had fun taking this, with the tripod looming over me. I had to reach wwwaaaaayyyyy up to hit the shutter release each time (took it using a delay so I could pose and be still).
Post-challenge:
Oops. I didn't set my camera back for the end of daylight saving time. Thus, the EXIF shows it as being taken at 12:53 am, or just after the challenge closed, instead of at 11:53 pm, when I actually took it. I discovered that at about 12:02.
Fair enough. I self-reported the problem. While the SC debated, it made for an interesting forum thread.
I take some solace in knowing that 5 people laughed at it hard enough to comment, which was the point! :)

I saw the title before I saw the image. The title made me think of somebody bouncing off the walls. The fact that the image is of someone not being able to sleep is SO much better than what I had thought of! I think the pose / facial expression captures so well the frustration we all know, of not being able to get to sleep. Great job.
