Patch Photos of the Week: East Bay Beauty

EAST BAY, CA -- Patch reader Sarah Barnard of Martinez recently shared with us a group of lovely, artistic photos that were taken over the past several months, and we liked them so much that we've made them our Photos of the Week.

The images, Sarah says, are:

• A California Poppy from her backyard in Martinez;
• Bear Creek Road, at Briones Regional Park;
• Oak Tree with swing, off Carquinez Strait trail in Martinez;
• Viano Winery in Martinez, and;
• Briones - Bear Creek Road, Briones Regional Park; same location as above, but a different shot.

If you have an awesome photo of nature, breath-taking scenery, kids being kids, a pet doing something funny or something unusual you happen to catch with your camera, Patch would love to feature it. We’re looking for high-resolution images that reflect the beauty that is the Bay Area, and that show off your unique talents.

Images can be posted for free in Patch's bulletin board section or emailed to mark.nero@patch.com
