15th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Mobile
Paradise Lake, CA

My husband woke my son and I up in the wee hours of a Sunday morning . "The fish are biting at this time!" He claimed. So the three of us hoped in the truck and headed to Paradise Lake. The fish didn't take the bait. Maybe it was the rocks chucked into the water by a toddler or his cries of fear from stalking bumble bees. Either way, we came away with photos rather than dinner.
