Capones - Raw Beauty

Capones Island - Another gem of the Phlippine archipelago. The island lies off the coast of Zambales and is part of the town of San Antonio. Raw and pure are the words to describe it. Although there has been attempts to build certain structures in the island it still remains unspoiled and free from urban facilities.

On the western part of the island is a lighthouse, built in 1800's. The path to the lighthouse is a humbling experience, as I am not a trekker or a mountain climber... Upon reaching the summit, you realize that it was well worth the effort.

Thank you for your visit/comments.

Best viewed at full resolution.

Very nice photos, I like how you capture images that may well teach us in the future. The Batanes shootout was great too.

I really like your style of photography. I appreciate it more and more, discovering with calm all your galleries.
This one is a very accurate monograph which conveys to the viewer the emotions and the spirit of these Philippine islands, which were totally unknown to me.
Thank you!
