! Photo Of The Day

Patch reader Cathie Fergus captured these incredible shots of Monday's Vandenberg Space Force Base SpaceX launch from Mission Viejo. The contrail lit up the night sky as it reflected the glow from the setting sun. Look closely and you'll see she captured the booster separation.

Thanks for sharing!

If you have an awesome picture of nature, the culture of our city, breathtaking 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, horizontal images that reflect the beauty that is Orange County and that show off your unique talents.

Send your photos to miranda.ceja@patch.com. Be sure to include photo credit information, when and where the shot was taken, and any other details about what was going on.
