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 70: Pretty fly for a white guy....

Just did an hour of Zumba and I feel very good, although I think I agree with my Dad going to be hard to get to sleep after doing exercise so late. David was an hour and half late from coming home from work as he missed the last bus and had to walk most the way home, till he got to worcester and got a local bus. Today has been nice me and Rosina did some shopping and I got a diary so I can be organised on my course, and Zumba fitness for the wii so I can do an hour a day and a class a week to be fitness freak again (like pre pregnancy me).
  Today's picture is of a strange flower not sure what (anyone know?) I saw while walking with Rosina and caught these bright green flys on top of them so decided to take a photograph trying to get the detail of the fly, properly need a different lens to get closer in on the fly though.
