intermission number 5

Few moments compare to a Manila Bay sunset. At least that was what we have heard virtually throughout our lifetime, most especially for Filipinos living in Manila.

As a professional photographer, I actually have had very few professional projects which specifically needed a Manila Bay sunset. The thing with it is that there is an island that lies smack in the middle of where the sun is supposed to set, at least for most parts of the year.

So, what do you do next? You partner with Prestige Cruises and arrange to have a yacht move you around the bay so you will eventually get a good vantage of the sunset! And while everyone is mesmerized by the sunset, I look out for special one-of-a-kind shots that no one else sees. Here is one such shot; photographed probably early 2010.

As usual, the photograph is displayed as photographed. No photoshop, no tweaks. Shown the way I saw the scene unfold.

If you like it, please post a comment. I am a sucker for feedback.

enjoy.
