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 283: Christening

Had a lovey busy day today, we went to London this morning with Roxy and Tom, as today was Alanah's christening. Rosina was very car sick on the way which was sad, so as soon as we got there we had to pop into marks to get her a new dress. The service was nice and Ro was a very good girl. Afterwards we went to my Uncle Parvis and Aunty Beverley's house for the party after. There was lovely food and was great to see and catch up with my family. I took lots of photographs and got a lovely biscuit tin off Angela and Max to say thanks for the cloths of Rosina's we gave them (even though they didn't have to). After the party Tom drove us to Leighton, Ro and Dave went to his parents and us three went to my Dads for the very last time for real as its being sold tomorrow! I helped my Dad finish cleaning and putting things in his new room. Then Roxy and Tom had to leave so we went for curry and played some pool.
Today's picture is a lovely one of Max, Alanah, David and Ro x
