Came back to Worcester today although we had a lot of packing to do this morning so we didn't leave till 12 so we walked to the station for the 12.42 train which got us back at 3.30! I had to go straight to uni from there for my tutorial. After which I did work till my evening lecture. I didn't get home till late :( had a accident when cooking dinner the hob was left on and burnt a tray a little bit :(

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!

Day 309: Strawberry
Had a sad night as Rosina had night terrors again so there wasn't much sleeping going on and by 7 she was ready to get up. We spent the morning playing tea party with her cuddly toys, and had a lovely bath together. We went to town to get lunch and to pick up some other bits but the weather was too nasty to stay out long, after lunch Rosina had her nap but seemed to have night terrors in the day for the first time so I decided to have her on my lap and rub her belly so she could get some more rest. When David got home I did some tidying and made stuffed pancakes for dinner :)

Day 307: Experiment photography with objects and material
Today has been very productive, I spent the morning with Ro who was very clingy (i think she missed me while I was away) but too soon it was time to go to childminders, although as normal she was happy to be there. I spent the afternoon doing work including some more experimental photography shots for my project, not much left to do now. Then it was time to go to university we had a group lecture all showing our work and talking about our projects. When I got home I did some more editing on my photographs.

Day 305: Alternative fashion show
I have had a very busy day in London, Lydia and I went straight to the alternative fashion show when we left the house and spent some time looking around the stalls and talking to designers and modelling agencies, whom I have hopefully succoured two interviews with for my dissertation. Afterwards the show started and I managed to bag myself a good space at the front so I could photograph the show, spending over an hour constantly photographing, having to change my settings through lighting changes and try not to be pushed out the way by others was hard work but fun and I felt very proud of my hard work. Once the show had finished and we had finished looking round we headed to oxford street so we could find some locations for the photo shoots with Lydia. We spent the restroom of the afternoon doing this and managed to get home at 7. Now I'm waiting for Lydia while she is at he reappointment before we head out for some nighttime shoots as well. Busy but productive day.
Today's photo is just one of many from the show.

Day 302: My Easter flowers
Ro and I have been poorly lady's today which isn't nice :( we spent the morning playing and watching tv before having a very early nap as she sleeps a lot when she is poorly. We had to go out for a little fresh air and to get some food, but she didn't want to be outside and kept moaning at me :( when David got home he was very lovely and gave us both cuddles. I made dinner but it wasn't brilliant and me and Ro weren't up for much food. I may get an early night so I can do some work tomorrow morning.

Day 296: The hunger games
Just a quick blog as its been a long day of unpacking, other then that Ro and I took a walk and got some photos printed and over 200 ready to be picked up Monday (took Maias advice to do lots in one go) it makes me sad that people don't often print now due to digital photography and I'm a photographer saying that. So people print a load and get an album it's so nice to look through.
