“Remembering Rose”, Maynooth, 2009reflection

Hav­ing taken the pro­mo­tional shots for “Remem­ber­ing Rose”, I also went to one of the per­form­ances to take some pho­tos of the “action”.

In one word: Awe­some. A really great play /​script /​per­form­ance alto­gether. I really hope this play has a “future” bey­ond three per­form­ances here in Maynooth. But I heard that they will be com­pet­ing with it at some big­gish theatre fest­ival. I’ll keep my fin­gers crossed!

Pho­to­graphy­wise — well, I already had a post about event pho­to­graphy, and there’s not too much to add here, apart from one thing: It always helps (if pos­sible) to have someone next to you who can give you a “heads up” when there will be some sud­den, unpre­dict­able action. This way, you can pre­pare your­self (switch lens, dial in faster shut­ter speeds, etc.), pre­fo­cus and be ready for it. In my case, Steffi was next to me and gave me a few such clues (she knew the play as she had a small walk-​on role in it), which really helped!

PS: Pho­tos from the night here.
