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 92: Playing with exposure

My baby slept through the night for the very first time wooo, waking up at half eight without a baby in my bed felt surreal but I felt very good for an 7 hour sleep without getting up. Sadly Rosina is teething with 3 teeth at one time today, so she isn't the happiest baby in the world, everytime I tried to do anything she would push my legs untill I sat back down for cuddles. But we still went to music and to the park where she seemed to make lots of little friends and some four year old girls kept holding her hand and sitting her on their laps. David spoke to her on speake ron his way home from work while she had a bath so she was a happy girl as she missed him lots today.
   Today's picture is just something crazy I was taking moon picture with long exposure and decided to play about with the camera while I did it.
