ALAMEDA, CA — If you enjoy watching aquatic vessels, Alameda is a real treat — from kite boarders to cargo ships — you can see it all in a single day.

Julie Castillo snapped this striking photo of a cargo ship at the Port of Oakland last week. Thank you for sharing it with Patch readers!

If you have an awesome photo of nature, breath-taking scenery, kids caught being kids, a pet doing something funny, or something unusual you happen to catch with your camera, we'd love to feature it on Patch.

We're looking for high-resolution images that reflect the beauty and fun that is Northern California, and that show off your unique talents.
