Moon Shots in Batangas

While at Batangas I had the chance to take some moon shots and I must say that it was very hard.

Of course, I had researched before I went there. I had made a list of configuration I would use. For almost a hundreds shots I took, only few turned out I liked.

On several nights I took my shots, I did enjoyed the learning process. Not every shot will turn out good and sometimes I need to change my camera's setting.

But what I like most is I also got to enjoy the darkness, stars and moon..

Bulog Dos is a small sandbar island located in the Calamianes Islands, Palawan. It is a popular tourist destination, known for its white sand beaches, clear waters and coral reefs. The name Bulog Dos means "two pillows" in the local language, referring to the two sandbars that make up the island.

The island is located off the coast of Busuanga Island, and can be reached by boat from Coron Town.

Batangas Beach Silhouette

This is the first I went to beach in Batangas, considering my Mom used to live there and me having my summer vacation in there almost every summer. It is a private resort of my Uncle's friend, we stayed there for the whole afternoon and evening.

What I really like about this place is the sunset. With bluish and orange hue sky, the clouds passing by, the sun setting, with mountains and ships passing by, Batangas is really beautiful.

Lunch at Calumbuyan Island

When we finally got in the island we were so excited, the place is so beautiful and we did a lot of things, tour the island, swim, snorkel, took shots. Its no wonder that we were so hungry!

We woke up early on the third day of our Coron trip because it would take hours to get into Calumbuyan Island. During the boat ride, we spent a lot of time looking along the view, we also had time to slept.

Lunch at Calumbuyan Island was a feast. Our tour guide was so thoughtful.. We were so delighted with what they serve to us! We also taught our friend on how to use hand on eating or food trip, we were in an island afterall.

Conquering Mount Tapyas

Conquering Mount Tapyas has a price to pay, a total of 700 steps before you see the paradise above. So me, Sabrina, Alex, Harold and Melvin made our way up. Taking photos every hundred steps going to Mount Tapyas in Palawan!

We really want to document our way up to Mount Tapyas. So in the first picture, we looked happy, relax, excited and stress free he he.. After one hundred steps, we still look happy, relax, stress free and ready to pose for pictures. Same goes to two hundred. By three hundred steps, we were taking our handkerchief or towel, its getting hot. We were slowing down when four hundred steps were made. As we were nearing five hundred steps, we were officially thirsty. We were moving like snails on the time we hit six hundred steps. And finally, we made it on top!
