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 64: Berry picking

Even though I prefer David working the early so we can spend the evening today, he worked the late today which turned out to be quite nice because we had a family breakfast at the dinning table. Then off to music me and Rosina went, she was very good and even managed to get a drum and a shaker when the instruments came out. Afterwards we went berry picking like we planed to the other day, we managed to get a whole tub of blackberries and i'm even tempted to look up how to make jam and go get more. After lunch we decided to make a chocolate fudge brownie so I can take it to Roxy house tomorrow for her birthday party. Unfortunately we couldn't find white chocolate chips any where in worcester city center so had to settle for milk chocolate.
    Today's picture I took while blackberry picking, I love photographing nature and have found a real passion for it during this project.
