Project Eighty-Five | Day 36/ 85
This weekend I had the wonderful opportunity to photograph our youth group from church doing several service projects throughout the city.
One of the projects involved the youth hosting a bingo game at a local assisted living home. Just before leaving I noticed this wonderful lady working on a puzzle with a friend. I politely asked if she would mind if I took her photograph and she gladly obliged. What a sweetheart!
What struck me about this kind lady is her beauty and elegance. Since we were shooting all over the city (and ridiculously short on time ... my own fault) I'm ashamed to admit I didn't stop and just talk with her. Something that I always try to do. I really like this photograph for many reasons but the most is that it will give me the opportunity to return to that assisted living home this week and share this with her. More importantly, I'm hopeful I will have the opportunity to sit with her and learn a little more about her life's journey.
What a wonderful day I had photographing so many different locations. I am so proud of our youth for serving God and the local community in such a faithful manner. Blessed indeed.
I truly appreciate your visits and comments.
