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 63: Duck

'Hey, hey, Ro, ro what a pretty so and so, what a pretty girl you are.' That is the song i have been singing to my pretty little girl all day and making her giggle. She has been crawling all over the house like a mad women and chasing me. Days like this make you so happy to be a Mummy of a lovely little girl who loves you more then anything in the world (well maybe Daddy just as much hehe). Other then playing we have not done much, we went for our daily walk and did some tidying. Then this evening I watched the new big brother, i'm not sure I will get into it, but I like to see who goes in the house, lets see if channel 5 is bringing back something which should have been left to sleep or not lol.
    Today's picture is of a very friendly duck who would have properly eaten bread out of your hand if you let it. Rosina liked to shout when it got to close, but it made a good photography opportunity.
