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 237: Dream catchers

I was very tired this morning when I woke up, so I had a nice morning of cuddles and watching lots of 'In he night garden' on DVD. I didn't want my lovely day with Ro to end as I been so busy we have not had any quality time together (or so it feels) but Wednesdays are childminder time and after not wanting to go once she got there she ran off and played and even cried when I picked her up, I'm sure it's meant to be the other way round. While she was away I tidied and did some uni work. Sadly as David had to work I had to miss my lecture because no one could look after Rosina. But we had a nice evening until daddy came home and brought me a kit Kay chunky mm last bit of chocolate before lent in a few weeks when it's bye bye junk food for 40 days! No chocolate/sweets/cakes or biscuits. I am also debating alcohol complete detox.... We shall see.
Today's picture is of dream catchers and evil eyes to protect you which Iike and these two hang in Ro Ro rooms.
