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 106: Reflection

I had my first full friday of university today, I dropped Rosina off this morning at Clares and she want in the toy box playing with Finly before I had even left the house, which is nice to see she loves it so much. University was good the lectures were interesting and now I got to get thinking what I want to do for my project, I am going to buy new sciencetist and the paper to see if I can get ideas to do with current issues. The people on the course are also really nice and we have been ordered by our lecturer to go out for a drink together soon which will be nice. Got off the last lecture early so I meet David before we picked up Rosina. Stupidly I forgot to take Thor back yesterday so we took a walk there and managed to rent another film out instead of having to pay for the late fee which is ok.
   Today's picture I took while walking along the canal on the way to Blockbuster. The reflection in the water looked really cool so I thought it was the perfect oppurtunity.
