Crossing the Bay Through The Smoke: Photos of the Day

SAN FRANCISCO, CA — A horrible haze has blanketed the Bay Area since last week when the Camp Fire broke out in Butte County. The sun has been blotted out for much of the day, and has glowed a bright orange during sunrise and sunset.

Laura Maxey snapped these photos on the ferry crossing between San Francisco and Alameda. You can see the smoke between Laura and even nearby objests. Thanks for sharing your photos, Laura!

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 that is Northern California, and that show off your unique talents.
