"The clouds were trying to veil the sunset but their capability was just limited to conceal the glorious beauty of the orange sky."

Enjoying some chilly zephyr and the orange heaven, it looks like a painting colored on a huge canvass called the sky. It was undoubtedly a magnificent view that truly awakens the senses... the soul.


Mt. Masaraga Albay
I thought it was a bad idea going to this place at a time where we can chase the dark. It was already 6 pm on my wrist watch. Thinking it was a bad idea, it turned out to be a surprise.

The sunset, it didn't pop out in my mind that the time was just perfect to enjoy the sunset -- not over the beach, but over the mountain called Mt. Masaraga under the jurisdiction of the city of Ligao.

Yes I know, it was not easy to travel on a zigzag road at night where street lights are not present because just after chasing this sunset over Mt. Masaraga, we have to face the night.

I think chasing the sunset over certain mountains is an idea as good as chasing sunset over certain beaches and being able to capture the sunset over Mt. Masaraga was a golden opportunity.

The clouds were trying to veil the sunset but their capability was just limited to conceal the glorious beauty of the orange sky. Instead, the clouds just blended with the sunset with beauty and magic!

I will never forget this moment and it was more than memorable. Mt. Masaraga is one of the 3 peaks of Albay and I'm glad I have captured this 3 mountains in sunset. Watch out for the next mountain sunset!

"The scenery was very unusual seeing a very majestic volcano standing so high in her own splendid making the surrounding communities nearby to live with awe and pride!"

In a very rare opportunity for a traveler like me, I was able to capture the famous almost perfect cone-shaped Mayon Volcano in the province of Albay. At the foot of Mt. Mayon are several towns and 3 cities and that includes the city of Ligao.

At this angle, I was in Ligao City and in a very nice opportunity, the sunset rays of the sun has colored the clouds around the volcano's crater including the sky.


The scenery was very unusual seeing a very majestic volcano standing so high in her own splendid making the surrounding communities nearby to live with awe and pride!

Mayon volcano stands very noticeably as if it owns the whole land and pointing up so high as if it rules the communities around it. Truly, Mt. Mayon gives pride and glory for the people around it and living with it. Mayon Volcano rises 2462 m (8,077 ft) above the gulf of Albay.


As I was nearing Legazpi city, the angle is going the different way and slowly, the orange reflection is going away my sight. The sun has almost set in and the sunset scene is gone. The next thing is the twilight wherein the light and the darkness are fighting for a space. Gladly, the Mayon Volcano continues to become awesome even though sunset's gone and darkness peeking in.

Truly, her beauty is unpredictable giving you different outlook in different time, different condition and different situation. In any case, Mayon can always adapt a beauty regardless of the condition of her surroundings.
