Tropical Lagoon? No - It's Alameda!: Photos Of The Day

ALAMEDA, CA — Does the first photo shown above remind you of the "island" calendars for sale in many stores at this time of year?

Oh, lucky you! The photo was not taken at a far-flung location, but right here in Alameda.

A huge thank you to Claus Weisemann for snapping these photos, to remind every resident of how lucky they are to live here.

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.
