About Insomniac Theatre

Worried about your kids reading problem? Confused by a recent breakup? Afraid you'll miss that National Geographic rerun you've watched three times before? This group is for those of us who grab our camera when we're bored and can't sleep.
This is a place for those photos you take when you should be sleeping. They don't have to be night scenes, taken at night or even depict subjects that involve insomnia. If you want to take a picture of your sleeping cat, wander the streets snapping shots of the homeless, take pictures of the moon, but don't think the other groups will understand why these photos are important to you post them here.
Photos of great quality or social import are inspirational and welcome here, however that shot you took of the ceiling fan for no particular reason is also welcome. We understand that with lack of sleep sometimes comes lack of judgement and with that in mind we need two rules.

1. No porn. I know that self portraits are a great choice when other subjects are asleep just keep it artistic/tastefull.

2. This is NOT a "score me" group. Unless critique is asked for there shouldn't be any "it's out of focus and your composition is..." comments.

Discussions about what is keeping you up are welcome in the discussion threads. Hope this gives us an outlet when no one else is around.
