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 50: Summer sky

   Had a nice day with Rosina today, this morining we went to music, where she was a bit of a silly girl as when the instruments where put out she was the first one at the box but managed to share them out so much and then had none left for herself, so when she tried to go share with another girl abit older then her, she got pushed away which made me sad for her. This afternoon we went on a long walk down the river and did abit of cloud watching off the bridge. Then on our way home we bumped into Antonia and her family so went for a chat. David and I are now watching 'The Thomas Crown affiar' while eating mackies ice cream very tasty.
   Today's picture is of this beautiful summer sky, on this very hot day. I love looking at clouds and making out different shapes within them.
