Real Dark makes the light seem brighter. That and music.

Its close on midnight and I have five hours of work still ahead of me, but this night is just magic.

The shoot location is so perfect. Its a small church that I know I have driven past dozens of times over the course of my lifetime but have never been in before. It is truly lovely. The darkness outside is that certain kind of darkness that doesn't have any light in it. Hidden from the city glare by the little sugar loaf the place is wonderfully dark outside. The stars look so clear and I really want to get out of Dublin's lightcast soon to see this again.
Inside is one of the best lighting set ups I have ever seen with the walls looking twice the size they are because of the shadows. Often I am aware of taking too many photos and tonight I am happy the cameras are at home.

My real point to this post,other than to pass the time on what is technically a "lunchbreak" at half eleven at night, is in the crew truck we were watching Stevie Wonder on Johnathon Ross. After seeing Sigur Ros and My Bloody Valentine at the Electric Picnic I proudly and confidently told anyone willing to listen that I have now seen everyone I really really want to see live. This is not true though. The incredible Stevie Wonder was on Johnathon Ross and I am so very determined to see him. Whats great about this is that as soon as I do see him I know I will remember there is someone else left to see.

but just on a wonderful night in the mountains, despite my need for sleep, I am pleased to remember there is still loads to see.
