I revisit most memories while trying to sleep, either very late or early. This image reminds me of that early morning scenario when the light is coming through the window and keeping me from falling back asleep. The low angle provides that perspective as if my head were still on the sheets, lingering before leaving bed.

I reduced the contrast the ease some of the harder shadows and adjusted the highlight tones slightly to add a bit of red into the more exposed areas and adjusted the shadows for a touch of green. It is very subtle but provides a bit of vintage feel without distracting from the content. The shallow d.o.f. helps to accentuate that early morning grogginess (and waking up without my glasses on).
