Puerto Calero marina is throbbing with music, lights, and serious partygoers. Although it is midnight there is no sense in trying to sleep, so we dressed, \u00a0put on our ID bracelets, and determined to test the low light capability of the Canon 7D camera. The photos which follow were shot at an ISO of 3200 and have been run through NIK Define anti-noise software.<\/p>\n
If nothing else, the Puerto Calero special events staff know how to \u00a0put on a regatta soiree. Party planners take note.<\/p>\n
