capones: zambales' beautiful rock

Encore
how a day ends in Capones

Capones is an outdoor photographer's heaven. Accessible, deserted, amazing landscape, white sand beaches, views of both sunset and sunrise, the list can go on.

coron: sunset theater at the public market

Coron Colorblast
unexpected color blast

I was pretty beat that day (from all the island hopping and snorkeling), and frustrated. We had to head back to the port in Coron's public market before the tide gets too low and the boat will not be able to dock near the port. I was hoping to find a better POV for shooting the sunset, say a mangrove area. But I don't relish the idea of wading through the murky water near the market if our bangka got stuck. There won't be any sunset shoot that day, or so I thought.

coron: kayangan lake, the tranquil lake

Tranquil Lake
tranquil Kayangan Lake

Locked beyond towering limestone rocks in Coron Island (one of the islands in the Calamian group of islands in northern Palawan), this lake is considered to be the cleanest in the Philippines (if not in Asia). Its calm turquoise water seemed more tranquil once you are swimming in it.
