| Iranian ambassador heckled at the Ateneo, Madrid |
From the technical point of view this was an awkward story to cover. The first problem was that I was the only journalist cover the story inside the Ateneo, although there were a couple of other photographers taking photos. So I stood out like a sore thumb. And even when I managed to "blend" in the walls the noise from the D300 made sure I attracted attention. But then it was the D300 that made it possible for me to take the photos in the first place; and there was no option of using flash here.
As for the politics of the event, I'll always remember this event as a sad day in democracy.
