Photographer plays 'Iceberg Golf' on Lake Michigan

ST. JOSEPH, Mich., April 2 (UPI) -- A Michigan filmmaker shot a video showing how a photographer made the most of winter by playing "Iceberg Golf" on Lake Michigan.

Josh Nowicki, a photographer, said a joking comment about playing a round of golf on the ice of Lake Michigan led to the video, shot by filmmaker Seth Haley, of Nowicki using a paddle board to move between the lake's icy patches and shoot a round of golf.

"Seth and I both spend a lot of time at Lake Michigan and have been talking about various photo and film project we could do with the ice on Lake Michigan," Nowicki told WILX-TV. "Looking at the shapes of the ice on the lake reminded me of a green on a golf course and I semi-jokingly said that I would like to play golf out there. After some discussion we decided that it was quite possible and I went out to give it a try."

Haley shared the video on Facebook.

"This is how Michiganders do it until the golf courses open," he wrote in the post.
