“No place is boring, if you’ve had a good night’s sleep and have a pocket full of unexposed film.” – Robert Adams
We spend a third of our lives sleeping. It’s a quiet, beautiful, peaceful time – and it’s good for us too! Those 8 hours a day are a mini vacation for our minds and bodies, essential to us being productive and creative during waking hours.
14 EyeEm photographers and their pals have overslept so you don’t have to, capturing dozy catnaps, summer siestas and deep dreamy sleeps. They’ve given us a sneaky insight into restful moments all around the world – and got themselves published on ZEIT ONLINE, the website of Germany’s most widely read weekly newspaper. Let’s see ’em!
Feeling sleepy? You will be after scrolling through these peaceful shots!

The photos above are the winners of the Night Night, Sleep Tight Mission we ran with German news organization ZEIT ONLINE. They published this collection on their site and licensed each one of the photos. Congratulations to all of the chosen photographers!
