365/12 - Day 9 - Its five o'clock somewhere

So what happens when you're under the discipline of taking one photo every day to send all the way to Uganda to cheer someone up? you inevitably end up somewhere without your camera, lights, reflectors umbrellas, snoots and gels with the knowledge that you are not going to get to them at any sort of godly time to do a new set up....

Fortunately, you are out for your own leaving drinks and you do have a dimly lit bar, an large glass door off to one side letting in the late afternoon sun and a short way through your pint of Amstel you remember that your iPhone has a camera. With a small adjustment of the pint (another sip) you take out your phone hold it at a jaunty angle and take a single shot photo. Later, when you get home you apply your normal dimensions and black border with the title "Its five o'clock somewhere".

Day 9 complete, no dSLR, no Strobes, no light modifiers, no actors or stooges and no animals hurt in the making.
