Finding Moments

August 26, 2008 · By Deb Phillips – The Photo Gal 

Flowers in Lewisville, North Carolina (Forsyth County). Deb Phillips, photographer.I’m so often in a hurry and feel pressed to get back to my seemingly never-ending to-do list. It’s a constant struggle for me to “Stop and smell the roses” — or in this case, the daisies. Sometimes the struggle is harder than at other times. It would have been easy to keep walking by this scene. But, of course, I would have missed the joy of capturing and celebrating the beauty of the moment.
