The (Frozen) Tiki Bar (#11)

Fresh water fishermen are familiar with the name Roland Martin. As a well known, successful guide on Lake Okeechobee, he built a fish camp in Clewiston, FL. The proximity is adjacent to the Okeechobee Waterway, so he configured some docks to cater to passing cruising boats. I think (but I am not positive) that the property now belongs to Mrs. Martin. These things happen.

Anyway, Roland Martin's Marina has a well used Tiki Bar that stays open in near freezing conditions. The first photo was at sunset, and the second two hours later.






Both were shot hand-held, the first at ISO 800 and the second at, 1600. Both were at 85mm, f1.8. Sure, there's some noise, although Topaz Denoise helped. A tripod is a cruel joke when shooting from a boat - even under calm conditions.
