Had a day with antonia and Ro ro today, she took use to the Severn Valley railway as a treat (very sweet of her :) ) the day had a few issues such as not working out how to fit the car seat, spilling fanta on my top, play park being shut because the whole town had no water and so on just little ones but it was one of those days. even so we had a nice day going on the train, got free biscuits while buying my lunch, and got Ro a toy train of rosie from Thomas the tank engine. Rosina made lots of friends with all the passangers and staff and she kept going up to them, and playing for an hour with a 2 year old and 5 year old which I think she really enjoied. Makes me happy for her to go to the childminder as it means she will get to play with other children on a regular basis once she gets used to me not being there. Got home to a nice dinner off David and now going to watch pulp fiction for the first time ever.
Today's main picture is of the last station stop on the train, there pretty old fashioned stations and the trains themselves felt a bit like the hogwarts express.
The second picture is of two of the trains that weren't running but were on some of the tracks next to where we stopped.
Day 1: 16/06/2011
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.

Tricky notebooks
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!
