#217 Horse Shoe Bend



You may have read about how mountains are carved by the rivers that run through them, but it's only when you see a mountain range like this one do you realize the real power of water to transform a landscape.

We were driving between the Mountain Province and Kalinga when we came across this scene. We just had to stop. Like most things in life... miss a moment and it's gone. There was ample time for photography, as there was also time to simply gape in awe at what nature had wrought. Isn't life just amazing? Enjoy.

(Pixel-peepers: It's another panorama created by shooting 8 pictures handheld. Pretty neat technology, huh?)

But wait, there's more...
For those who've inquired about buying prints of my postcards, you may purchase them directly from master printmaker Arnel Murillo (murilloarnel@yahoo.com), one of the country's foremost fine-art printmakers.  Arnel uses archival inks and museum-grade paper to ensure his prints will not fade. You will not be disappointed. (All my images are provided gratis to help showcase the beauty of our country. But if you feel generous, help me uplift the lives of the Children of Payatas.  No donation is too big or too small. Get in touch with Fr. Aldrin Suan at aldrinsuan@yahoo.com of the Vincentian Missionaries in the Philippines. As always, thanks and enjoy.)
