[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I was in Tagaytay to have breakfast with my wife and friends and I took the time to take some scenes here. After a while as I was perched on the roofdeck edge off the cliff, I felt the deck move...ah fresh wind I said to myself after all I was at a peak.

After that I heard over the radio that Manila experienced a 5.6 tremblor on the Richter scale at 6:09 am, excactly the same time I was at the edge...whew...what if that was a 7 or 8 magnitude would I have gone tumbling down??? Makes me wonder...

Hello Raul

Good photo. Very fine colours. Bweautifull atmosphere.

Hi Raul,

Very beautiful moment with nice haze, light and rocking... While the earth was indeed rocking!

Hunt for great shots continues,

Ah, beautiful shot!
The colours are superb and the graduated layers of the headlands are lovely.
Very nice work

Amazing for you to capture this lovely image with the tremor. Need to check whether that earthquake coincided with the recent Hawaii tremor. Good colors and presentation. Regards. Danilo
