Day 1: 16/06/2011
Tranquility

Day 1

I decided a while back that I wanted to start a 365 photography project Seeing others inspired me to take this step in photography, as i have been at university studying illustration the last three years but leaning more towards photography by the end of my degree and even doing my dissertation on documentary photography.
I wanted the starting day to be a day which meant something to me so I decided that today, the 16th June, which would have been my Mother's birthday who sadly passed away nearly 3 years ago, would be fitting. This project is in her memory and a gift to her.
The main photograph i have chosen today was taken in Central Park in New York city. At the moment I am on a 5 week holiday staying with my Aunty Parvaneh and Uncle Richard. I came here with my partner David and our daughter Rosina. The photography is of a small motor powered boat which people of all ages were sailing around a pond in the middle of the park. It is a peaceful photograph full of tranquility, hence the title. In the middle of the big city there is peace found by all in this wonderful park.
The two photographs below show the bulk of what I did today which was a photo-shoot, which I did for my Uncle Richard, photographing
the filming of a video being made for the Kickstarter website for his product Tricky notebooks. It was a long day but good experience
documenting a film being made.

I have realized that i blogged my first day as the main post, so now day one of my project will always be at the top of the blog and the rest will go in order from newest post to oldest, just so you don't get confused!

Day 39: Seagulls

Had a busy morning filling in forms with David before work. Then this afternoon me and Rosina got on with the cleaning, we decided to go to town to run some errans but the lift was broken. considering we live on the top floor getting down the stairs with Rosina and the pram seemed an impossible task so I had to carry her around town which she loved. When we got back it was near dinner time and as I was in the kitchen I turned around to see Rosina walking over to me. She is so close to walking properly, its very exciting.
    Today's photograph is of the evil seagulls which all live on the roof tops near our balcony, when it was mating season and the chicks were born we got attacked every time we went outside.
