Tranquil Creek In Lake Forest: Photo Of The Day

LAKE FOREST, CA — There’s always a peaceful escape to be had in Lake Forest, and sometimes, it’s closer than you think.

Serrano Creek Park offers such an escape.

Framed by sprawling, tall trees and a gurgling creek, the park is one of many in Lake Forest that offers a serene retreat from a hectic day.

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 Orange County, and that show off your unique talents. Photos should be horizontally shot, high quality — and no selfies, please.
