Yesterday we decided to embark on an exploration going Southern part of Cebu. Our trip was just spontaneous that started out with an itch to shoot landscape that day. Initially our target was Kawasan Falls but due to the great number of tourists and locals going there, we decided to go to Moalboal instead. "Moalboal is foremost known as a place of great diving. The sleepy town lies on the west coast of Cebu, about 92 km south of Cebu City. You can cover the distance in about 2 1/2 with a car or bus."

Aside from the images and scenery we witnessed, its the learning and stories that made the "Moalboal trip" memorable. Just to kickoff our VISMIN Exploration we will start from here then cover our succeeding trips and share them to all. Indeed, we were blessed that day with strong winds and waves! To Lem and Paul I salute you guys for your passion to this hobby. Now, looking forward to the next..

Great shot, do you find any build up of salt on your lenses?
If so how do you keep them clean?

hi jad,so far there's no build up of salt in my gears. after the shoot i quickly clean it up. salt can easily corrode the metal part of the cam.

I especially like the first image. The blues are fantastic and the surf motion is very nice indeed.

Hey Karlo,

That first shot is rather beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Typically I hate humans in a landscape - but they really add scale and dimension to the photo. Very well done. BTW, the second photo in this series now appears to be missing.
