The Noticing Project is a collaborative endeavor between artists Alicia Alferman and Heather Smith Jones. The notion of the project is to look intently and observe the small or ephemeral moments around us.
The project began when we noticed similar things on the same day, unbeknownst to the other. See them here and here. Two days later this project became a collaboration.
We will photograph and post images daily {mon. – fri.} throughout 2008. Thank you for looking.

What a wonderful project ladies! Can’t wait to peek in daily in 2008!
I will be looking here daily. What inspiration to live enthusiastically in the moment.
Thank you.
beautiful idea…i look forward to sharing this site with my students and allowing it to remind me to be quiet. Thank you for sharing your vision.
A beautiful project, I love how it’s coming along.
I was so excited to discover your exquisite project, but then my heart really went pitty-pat when I discovered where you live! I was born in KC, raised in its suburbs, graduated from KU, dwelled for years in Lawrence and now live in rural central MO. Small world! Thank you for what promises to be a deeply nourishing experience.
Looks lovely! I can’t wait to come back again and again.
love this ~ thanks so much for reminding us the simplest & littlest things in life are what make it so magical.

wonderful project. Look forward to my daily dose of taking notice.

What do you two use each day to decide a common theme? A key word from the newspaper? Or something along those lines?
I’m extremely curious.
Kelli- we don’t choose a common theme for each day. We take pictures of what we notice around us, each choose our own favorite from the day and then put them together. Thank you for asking!
very inspiring – great collaboration!
I came here via Joy tanner’s blog. What a great idea! By using my camera I sometimes see things in a different way. I look forward to seeing what you see.
Your project has inspired my friend, Karen and me to embark on a similar journey.
Thanks for your beautiful images. We love checking in to see what you’ve noticed each day. I hope you continue the project in 2009.
