A Break In The Storm: East Bay Photos Of The Week

MARTINEZ, CA — These photos submitted by Patch reader Susie Snyder show rain clouds parting for a brief break in the storm last weekend in Contra Costa County.

"These were taken on Saturday around 11:30 a.m. in Martinez looking toward Concord where I was heading," she explained. "I call it 'driving into the abyss.'"

Thanks so much for sharing, Susie!

It's Your Shot: Pictures You Take and We Share

Have you got the next incredible photo? If you have an awesome photo of nature, breathtaking scenery, kids caught being kids, a pet doing something funny or something unusual you happen to catch, we'd love to feature it on Patch. We're looking for high-resolution images that reflect the beauty that is the East Bay, and that show off your unique talents.

So, bring 'em on. Not selfies. Not here.

Send your photos to autumn.johnson@patch.com and we'll post the feature on an occasional basis. Or — post it for free in our bulletin board section on the site, and we'll feature it up top. Be sure to also include when and where the shot was taken and any other details about what was going on.
