Finding my Center

My life can be overwhelming and chaotic. When my mind is going full blast it is difficult to feel peaceful. I have tried many outside sources to help calm my mind and being but none seem to help near as much as photography. Photography forces me to slow down and to really look at things, to see the light and shadows playing across buildings and people we see everyday. To see how things look different in the early morning light compared to the harsh reality of the noon day sun. To see how the earth prepares for the nighttime, by giving us such a range of colors as the sun goes down.

So many times in our busy lives we have gotten away from the wonder that is a beautiful day, be it either sunrise or sunset. We have two chances most every day to be amazed and we let it slip away.
