View From The Hiking Trail: Photos Of The Day

WALNUT CREEK, CA — Laura Kaufman spent the early days of the pandemic lockdown in 2020 on nearby hiking trails. Laura told Patch in an email, "I'm so lucky to live near a trailhead on the Acalanes Ridge."

These photos were taken between March and May in 2020 when California's state flower was in bloom.

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