Vasco Da Gama


"Vasco Da Gama"
Took this picture during a technical rehearsal of Vasco Da Gamma at the Deutsche Oper in Berlin.
A tale of 5 acts, love death and all the trimmings which you'd expect of a piece of this magnitude.
Opera photography requires lots of patience and the ability to deal with low light that changes almost constantly.For me it's a real honour not just to take pictures, but to also see all the work and creativity which has gone into this production.
Anyone in Berlin now I would reccomend this Opera highly!!!!
