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 178: Violinists

This morning was busy full of tidying the house ready for Maia to come over, going to town was crazy today as it was so busy and people would just not let you through, luckily we gained Maia at half three and decided as there was two of us to walk Rosina into town to get stuff for dinner. I took my camera out to get a blog photograph and ended up getting asked by a charity for guide dogs to send my photographs to them for there magazine so my work will be in something official which is very exciting. Had a lovely day with Maia and just got my Christmas presents off off very lovely lip gloss and chocolates :)
   Today's picture is of the two girls who I took photographs of for the guide dog magizine although not one I would thing of them using but I liked it for my blog. As I would want to send them more face on photographs.
