Sometimes I can’t sleep...

in #photography5 years ago (edited)


Do you ever find yourself with a head full of so many thoughts that you just can’t get them to slow down? Do you find yourself ever wishing for slumber, but instead end up contemplating ideas within?


I do, often.


Normally my go to is to read a book, which is something I enjoy anyways.. and other nights, like tonight, even that doesn’t work.

So here I am just lying around.. letting my mind wander to far off places and interesting thoughts ... nothing more dangerous than a girl who lets her mind wander, right?


Who knows what trouble could come from that...

I guess we will know soon enough...

Haha I was thinking about you today! And am currently trying to decide what to post... I think I need wine..

Wine.. nice choice. A little thought lube. 😁

Ya... been a bit. Was missing ya.

Join the club, then. That happens to me all the time! Too sleepy but too active to sleep. 😤

Well at least we have a club! Haha. Yes, imagine all the things we could accomplish if our bodies did not require sleep... actually, that might be quite dangerous. Haha.

I think those that do have late night thoughts are often those that like to let their mind run away from them, I used to try and fight it but now I just let it happen I write down the ideas and perhaps something comes of it, lol you never know where inspiration comes from

What books have you read lately?

That is an excellent point and one I believe as well. So many thoughts and ideas as well as just pondering things. Wonderful idea about writing them all down, I should start doing that. Inspiration is everywhere we look after all. 🙂

Currently I’m reading ‘For Whom the Bell Tolls’ By Hemingway. How about you? Any suggestions of what I should add to me list of books to read?

I look forward to seeing what you come up with in those restless moments

I’ve been reading 1984 lately and I really enjoyed Jordon Peterson and David Ickes new books too! If you’re looking for good readers @steemityourway should be able to recommend some she’s an avid reader

hey there, we are an antiabuse team and we would like to have a word with you to see if you would be interested in collaborating with us as a model in a graphic campain against plagiarism, how can we contact you?

Hey there! I’m not exactly sure what this comment means, but I’m not a model and am not really interested in trying that. But I appreciate the compliment 😘 I’m just here to post some picture and have fun!

Great, now, different issue: https://steemit.com/utopian-io/@jaguar.force/the-halo-effect-id-deception-and-plagiarism-1558029942629

Are you verified already by any chance? It is customary in steem that people like you need to verify their id by taking a selfie with a sign or similar. There is a lot of ID theft and deception in the platform and thats the reason these verifications are customary.

No, I didn’t see anything about verification. Is there a site I go to? Selfie with a sign of what? If you’ll send me a link or point me in the right direction that would be great, thanks!

Sure, I will point you in the right direction, since you claim to be the person in the picture you would need to take a selfie with a sign that reads "steemit.com/@ananke" and post it here in one of your posts, let us know when that is done. You are welcome!

That’s going to be hard to make look attractive. Haha, I’ll do my best. Thanks for the info!

Ok I put a photo with the sign in this post https://steemit.com/photography/@ananke/random-facts. Hope that helps. Thanks!

Thats excellent, we hereby verify you are the person in the pictures in your posts, you can show that post to anybody that questions the authenticity of the photos you post. One detail, your avatar image has a face that has a dimple in the chin, we dont see the dimple in your other photos, this is a minimal detail of small importance but in the spirit of making this verification thorough we would like to ask you whats going on with that, is the image of your avatar you?

You herby verify me? That’s it? Seems like a very odd verification process if I’m honest.. as if one account has some sort of authority over the whole blockchain..seems kind of scammy, I mean I’m half expecting for you to ask for my bank account number next with a promise of a million dollar check from an African prince 😄

I am going to assume you are trying to do a good thing here, as where any money is to be possibly made many with game it.. and it’s why I’ve done what you asked.. but I hope this doesn’t continue as I’ve not seen a verification need mentioned anywhere and I don’t believe I’ve done anything wrong. Have I?

To answer what is hopefully your last question - no the image is not of me. It’s a free source image that I cropped and overlaid with an images of “cosmos” of the universe and then did multiple effects in photoshop to get a look I wanted. It’s my attempt at some sort of collage art that expresses the attitude I was wanting to convey in this blog. I made it over 6mths ago and to be honest I wasn’t sure what I intended to with this place.

So it’s my attempt at art that I ended up liking and think it conveys who I think “Ananke” is. By the second post I decided I would use this blog for self portrait experiments and therefore from there on they are all me.

I hope that answers your questions and that I can go back to just having fun. Because I won’t be sending you my bank account number 😉

Is that avatar of yours you? 🙃
