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 236: I could fillet those fish

Had a nice day with David and Ro, we decided to make the most of his last day off work. While we have free time before all the work and the moving starts. I spent an hour looking up where we could go and decided upon the sea life, also managed to get 2 for 1 vouchers. So we went up to Birmingham and had some lunch at urban pie which wasn't amazing, then we went to sea life. Ro was a bit sleepy but enjoyed running round every where and looking at the fishes. After we got through there was a small play area. So she played with some other little girls. On the way home we stopped at the Disney store and got Ro her valentines present of a Rapunzel doll which is lovely :) Now its time for some desperate housewives :)
I took a picture of some of the fish today while David was walking round saying how he could fillet those.
