Taking a road trip is a great opportunity to see the world and at the same time, enjoy some good conversation with others in the vehicle. When you are on a long road trip, however, you are likely to fall asleep as well. For those who are driving, catching a nap on occasion is really a right of passage.
You do need to be a little cautious when you fall asleep these days, however, because you know somebody’s going to take a picture of you snoozing. The wife in this scenario not only took a picture of her sleeping husband, she asked the Internet for a favor.
Sharea and Nate Overman and their three sons were driving across Indiana to visit family when Nate zoned out a bit. The way he was leaning back in his seat made it look like he was “passed out” while driving, so Sharea, a part-time photographer, snapped a picture.
She made a decision to share the priceless shot with a photography group on Facebook and asked them to Photoshop the background to “show him what he missed.” Her online community did not disappoint!
“I started getting messages from people in South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Alaska… sending me their Photoshopped images of my husband,” Sharea told CNN.
The couple had a blast laughing at all the funny entries for the rest of their journey, but they assumed the fun would end as quickly as it began. They were wrong. It’s been a few weeks and the photos are still rolling in! Each “While You Were Sleeping” creation is a true work of art, but here are a few of our favorite things Nate missed during his nap.
1. Doc and Marty from Back to the Future.
Where they were going, they didn’t need any roads….
2. They do exist!
It’s a shame he was asleep. Seeing a UFO is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
3. Joe Exotic from “Tiger King.”
Maybe it’s a good thing he was asleep for this one.
