It was a once in a lifetime journey. An invitation for a photo Safari that can never be declined. So last February together some some 20+ other photographer, bloggers, tech writers flew to the beautiful province of Batanes. To say that Batanes is beautiful is an understatement. You need to be there to actually feel its real beauty. From the rolling hills, wind swept mountains, whistling wind, to the animals running wild and free. Batanes is like a gemstone. Unpolished, yet still exudes a natural beauty. A gemstone that has been kept in a jewl box where only a handful has actually seen or wear it.
