Patch Photo of the Week: Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve

SOUTH BAY, CA -- Patch reader Vicki Levy of Los Altos recently shared with us this fabulous shot of a walking trail in the San Francisco Peninsula, and we liked it so much that we made it our Patch Photo of the Week!

The photo, which was taken Jan. 16, 2017 on a trail at Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve in Cupertino, depicts rushing water in the bottom-center of the frame. The water's something that had been missing from the area for some time, thanks to Mother Nature.

"It was refreshing to see the waterfalls again after years of drought," Vicki said in her email to us.

If you haven't previously seen our photos of the week, here's some examples:

• Green Returns to Livermore Hills: Photo of the Week
• Stunning Supermoon: Livermore's Photo of the Week
• Patch Photo of the Week: National City Harbor at Sunset

Cell phones capture amazing images. True DSLR cameras render detail that almost looks surreal.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 talents.

You can post it for free in Patch's bulletin board section, or email it to mark.nero@patch.com.
