MINDORO | Puerto Galera Sunset
The Hunt For A Scenic Sunset
One thing I like about having trips in the beaches is to witness how it looks like during sunset hours. As for Puerto Galera white beach, it's always a quick weekend trip from people who lives and works in Metro Manila. being that its easily accessible from Batangas Pier. My first trip here was during the first team building with my co-workers almost 5 years ago. On my first time, I was surprise that Mindoro is keeping a place like this one. And the first experience of Puerto Galera sunset was spent swimming in its cool waters and watching people enjoying the walk on the beach. Its a nice change from working on a corporate office.
As was this January of 2012, these pictures where again taken on another Team Building roughly translating it to outing with office friends. After five years of being the Manila Boy that I became, Puerto Galera never went off my list of being one of the prime weekend getaway. I sure hope these pictures I took at different exposures and time on sunset will tell you why.
The sunsets on this beach is almost always glorious, something I have come to expect on every trip. Just either lounging on the sandy beach or having a drinking session with friends along the beach bar toasting on Mindoro Sling while watching the sky turn from bright blue, to yellow, to having purple streaks going to deep dark blue. It's always fun to watch it while also trying to get drunk by the beach.
These photos where edited without me touching up the dials for saturation, but just adjusting the exposure and tilting the sharpness. They almost look the same as it shows from the LCD of my camera.

ReplyDeletePuerto Galera has a special spot in my heart because it was the only place where my papa, mama, kuya and I had a bonding na buo kami, and di na mauulit yun kasi nasa heaven na si papa at mama.

ReplyDeleteI love sunrise and sunset I used to live in the South of Mindanao almost every I can see the sunrise. But the are few times I can see the sunset only when I go to Samal Island over-looking the entire city of Davao with beautiful sunset. And you can see the Mt. Apo. It's stunning! Yours are classic!
ReplyDeleteSadly, I have never been to Puerto Galera.
