21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
Proud Catch

This images was capture at a local lake in Cuajinicuilapa in the states of Guerrero. For the 10 days I spent there everyday was well over 90 degrees. Ove the weekends families would relax at the lake ,swimming, fishing, and cooking out with families and friends. This young man was rather shy he really did want me to photograph him even though his friends were ok . But at this moment I notice the beautiful light on him as he pulled a catch out the water. Interesting enough there is a image with his eyes just looking Over the net still signifying the shy boy that I witness earlier and the this one with his arms fully raised with pride of his catch.
