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 169: Salvation army band

Today has been a nice day, this morning I had a hair appointment to talk about the plan for my hair which will be done on Monday so pictures up then :) Then Roxy came round (not my sister lol) and was nice to catch up with her its been too long. This afternoon Antonia came round and we tackled the rest of the Christmas shopping, only a few people left now. We also went to the Christmas fare which was nice had some Spanish type of doughnuts, and looked around some of the stalls Ro got hungry so we didn't get to see the whole fare but have the rest of the weekend for that. I made pancakes for dinner :) and now I am getting on with storyboards.
   Today's picture is a selection of the salvation army band which were playing at the fare today.
