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 297: Easter with the Sawtells

Had a busy but lovely Easter got up early this morning and watched Horton hears a who in bed and ate Easter eggs :). When we finally got up I has to make the apple crumble ( with help via Skype off of Roxy) and make the starter of salmon tarts :). Davids parents came round at 1.30 by which time we had tidied and showered :) David and I spent a lot of time in the kitchen but we has a lovely roast (lamb) and everyone enjoined my starter and dessert. After lunch we all chatted and watched Toy story, Rosina loved having everyone round and played with all. Trust had brought dinner so everyone had sandwiches although mine is in the fridge as I wasn't hungry I might have it now :) They left at Rosina bed time and I watched Jurassic park, now time to watched once upon a time great series :)
Today's picture is of everyone very happy after dinner.
