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 94: Balloons

Mad morning of tidying today, spent two hours cleaning and even did the horrible job of cleaning out the inside of the oven with a horrible spray which says if you get any on your skin you need to see a doctor eww, luckily I put te gloves on and dint get any on myslef, by one o'clock I was very hungry so David took us out for lunch at Bushwackers who do amazing food I had a chicken bbq melt sandwitch and chips, Rosina got a fre emeal for being a little un and David had a roast. Afterwards we took Rosina for a swim (Which I am going to start doing twice a week for fitness with Antonia soon ) Ro loved the pool and we brought her arm bands so she could have a go on her own and have a little float. My Daddy called me this evening as he had found some old characters I designed and thought they were good enough to make a book out of so maybe some children book design will be happening soon :) Got an exciting day tomorrow but I will say more about that tomorrow :)
   Today's picture is of ballons in bushwackers, Rosina loves balloons and the lady putting them up (which I assume is in preparation of freshers week) gave her one which made her very happy, as it was purple to match her cloths.
