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 77: Lunchtime treats

Roxy and Tom had work today, so Rosina and I had a Derby day to ourselves, getting up at nine I had a good breakfast of left over spinach pie which Rosina happily shared with me. Then at lunchtime we went to meet Roxy for her break, and went out for a cake which was very yummy. Sadly time passed quickly so she had to return to work, then we decide to kill the three hours before she finished. So I took Rosina to westfields where they have a small soft play center which Rosina happily played in for nearly and hour, after which we decided to go shopping. I have found two lovely dresses in the sale which after work Roxy kindly brought for me, and she also got me a jumper from topshop (I love my big sister :) ) This evening Tom made use a lovely home made curry, and now we are watching Eclipse.
   Today picture is in a very cute little cafe, which had very cool chairs and mugs.
