Lake Merritt Stroll: Photo Of The Day

OAKLAND, CA — Karen Griego captured this lovely photo of Lake Merritt in Oakland. Not a single cloud in the sky! Karen writes, "Lake Merritt is one of my favorite places to walk. It’s located near downtown Oakland. If you have kids, Playland is a great place to take them. They also have nice cafes and restaurants."

Thank you for the photo and tips, Karen!

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.
