IberoSTARS on stage

7/22/2015

While staying at the Iberostar Grand Hotel, located on Playa Paraiso (Quintana Roo/Cancun) in the heart of the Riviera Maya, we were treated to nightly live entertainment at their theatre. The amazing talent and energy that the performers had was incredible and they do it every evening. One of the nights we were there, we were given VIP seating up front so I was able to get some good views and angles for the camera. Each night they have a different theme (Rock, Beatles, Big Band, 80's, Las Vegas, etc.), and I promise you, they don't disappoint. They love what they do, and it shows in their performances. 

Personally, I love the challenge of taking photos in a low-lit theatre with no flash photography.  This is where a 50mm prime lens or something else with a wider apeture (f/1.4-1.8) can assist with that by bringing in more light into the lens. The stage lights will play with you and be annoying for some moments, but when timed right, they will work in your favor. Setting the camera at a higher ISO for your shutter speed helps as well. I also used a 75-300mm zoom lens (f/4-5.6) for some shots, but you can see the difference in quality a wider apeture can give.
