Mayoral election watch

I photographed Brian Fagan's watch party for the mayoral election tonight, at Dublin City Pub (a rather dark place, which means I actually had to bust out the flash for once). It's hard covering events like this, when you want to be respectful (he was down in the polls the whole night) but also want to get the shot. This was sort of an in-between moment, which is what I like about it. No handshake, no smile for the camera. Here's the Gazette's story on the race.
