Stingrays In Murky Alameda Water: Photos Of The Day

Does this make you want to hop into the water for a better look, or swear-off swimming in anything besides a pool?

ALAMEDA, CA — Have you ever looked closely at the water at the Ballena Isle Marina? Nick Stellato snapped this amazing series of photos and emailed them to Patch labeled, "Skates aka stingrays." According to Nick they were about six feet wide! That must have been amazing to see! And some people go on vacation to swim with the stingrays — just go to the marina!

Thank you for sharing your photos, Nick!
