[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The sun was just rising on the left side when I took this photo. The sky was clear for about 20 minutes. Mount Napulauan is located at Ifugao province Philippines, you get there by riding a bus to Banawe Rice Terraces then there is another 1.5 hour ride to Hungduan. It is one of the more difficult mountains to climb here. You will climb this on all fours for about 6 hours of the 10 hour climb. You go down the same way. General Yamashita knows this. It is here that he hid from the Americans during the final days of World War II

Immagine stupenda, grande spettacolo!

Ciao Benedict,
I think this image is really undervalued!
Excellent mood.

I did also a workshop, where I tried to increase the sharpness of the foreground.

Regards, Davide.

This is a majestic shot of a majestic mountain! The sun's rays are at the right angle for a good picture. very, very nice.

I did a workshop for you. i hope you do not mind as I really like it and I know it can be improved.

Hi there,

Could you please tell how high this mountain is by feet?

Thank you for your time.
