An Ada Icon photographer, eating a picnic supper at Railroad Depot Park, noticed how the sun beautifully backlit an ornamental grass. He enlisted the help of a little girl nearby, who was with a friend, to get a good photo of the tall plant. But, the smile of the little girl stole the show. She is Savannah Scott, 5, of Alger.
