The Daily Detail - Day One

All too often, I find myself racing through life, too focused on the task at hand to appreciate the beauty around me, except in passing. In order to slow down, look around, and appreciate the abundance of life around me, I have decided to embark upon a little project I am calling the Daily Detail. The Daily Detail will be a photo of something that catches my eye during the day. Now I am much too much a slacker to get this done every day, but I want to do it as often as possible. Just as a reminder to myself how important it is to slow down and appreciate the life I have.

I pass the Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd in Ogden, Utah everyday on my walk to work. The church was built 150 years ago, and despite being on a very busy road, there is always a feeling of peace surrounding the church and its gardens. The spring flowers are blooming, and pale spring green leaves are unfurling on the trees. Today, everything was kissed by the rain.

  1. gorgeous photo Dawn! The above is so true. We are so often in a hurry that we often rush on by and miss the beauty around us. I can't wait to see what other bits of beauty you capture!
