One of the reasons I like this job so much is that from time to time you get to see people like Rodrigo Sánchez and Gabriela Quintero perform on stage ( obviously to photograph them as well ). You could literally feel the passion of these two artists on stage. The crowd was hooked from the moment they started playing. To be honest, finding words to describe the show is near to impossible. If you get a chance to see them by all means, … don’t hesitate.
I was tempted to use the Fisheye for this show, but in the end I left it in the bag as there was no room to move around too much and the front of the stage with obstructed with gear. I used the 28-75mm F2.8 for the first two songs and switched to the 70-200mm F2.8 for the last song. The lighting was a mixture really, better than often at this location, but the variation and the speed of the artists were quite a challenge.
