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 200: Feeding the birds

Had to get up super early to have a blood test this morning which was horrible as I was very sleepy and even Ro was still asleep when I got home! David worked the late today, so let us and I had a cheeky nap with Ro as I was very tired and then we went to feed the birds, I let Ro walk there and was very clear bout staying behind the bar so I kneeled with her, she had a great time throwing bread into the river but got most on the side at first so we had lots of birds surrounding us! We then went for a walk and I ended up carrying her home on my shoulders as she got tired. We came home and tidied the house and sorted out things like bills ect. Now just going over some essays, and watching the mash up on channel 4.
   Today's picture is of Ro looking out at the swans.
