More Zhantra action at Space. Call me strange, but the dancers are the biggest attraction for me to shoot at any venue. I’m not one for mass-produced run-and-gun-here’s-my-card-I-need-50000000-hits-on-my-site type of event photography. I understand it has it’s place in today’s world of mass-traffic social media, but I’ve always felt that we’ve lost a bit of the art of “thinking through a photo” along the way. Very few event photographers do this, or even know how to. I’m out for visually interesting compositions, not mass-targeting the crowd for marketing. Besides, there’s way more efficient ways of getting people’s information besides sending some guy in a sponsor-tagged polo shirt out toting a DSLR. The funny thing was, at this event, a “club friend” of mine recognized this. She’s like “You wait for the moment, even if it takes an hour…”. I agreed with her and joked that I was too cheap to buy sufficient memory to store 1000 RAW photos from my MKII, and I consider shooting JPEG to be a sin. 

Oh, and the event in question here was with Loco Dice and Markus Schulz at Space. Markus is an old friend and it was a blast to see him, and Loco Dice played for 15 straight hours. Yes, 15.
