Calling All Amateur Photographers — Share Your Pleasant Hill Pics

If a picture says a thousand words, then Pleasant Hill Patch wants to write a novel.

We're looking for pictures of Pleasant Hill that capture the culture of a community, share a beautiful scene, or tell a story.

Get snapping and then upload your photos to the Pleasant Hill Patch Neighborhood Gallery.

The best photos will be used for features like "Pic of the Day," "Where in Pleasant Hill?" and "Delicious Mystery."

Here are the kind of pictures we're hoping for from Pleasant Hill photographers, whether you're using a smartphone or a professional camera:

• Food photos from local restaurants
• Landscapes, such as sunsets and views of Mount Diablo
• Pictures of local nature, including flowers and trees
• Pleasant Hill event photos
• Pictures that capture life in Pleasant Hill

Please include a caption with your photo describing where it was taken and any relevant context. All photos will be attributed to the photographer and may be used in future Patch articles.

How would you describe Pleasant Hill in a single photo, or a dozen? Share your pictures here.
