Fannette Island in Emerald Bay, Lake Tahoe, California side (5/15/2016). Fannette Island is the only island in alpine Lake Tahoe. Lora Josephine Knight, former owner of Vikingsholm at the head of the Bay, paid for a small "tea house" to be built on the island (c. 1929). The ruin of the tea house can be seen in the photo as the small white dot at the top of the island.

A black and white landscape image of a bay in a lake with a small island int he middle of the bay. The bay forms an hourglass shape with a narrow area in the center of the photo. The bay is surrounded by conifer trees. Bright sunlight streams in over the photographer's left should lighting the tops of the trees in the foreground and the little island in the middle of the bay. It is quite dark in the center of the photo going out to the lake. It is very overcast with thick clouds and there's some rain on the mountains on the far side of the lake. The water in the lake and bay is clam.
