Our last full day in Batanes started early...we walked for an hour in darkness in order to make it to Valugan Bay to watch and capture the sunrise. It was my first ever attempt at taking photos at that time of the day, and since it was a cloudy morning, I ended up playing with my flash. The result gave me lovely morning colors with lit subjects --- if only sunrise werent so early, I'd shoot more often at that time of the day.
Our third attempt at capturing sunset was spent at Shanedel's Inn. We were going to shoot and then have dinner -- in that order. The sunset was better than the past attempts, though it could have been better.
After two days of touring Basco and Sabtang, the following day was spent slowly and leisurely. Our main plan was to find what was called "Rolling Hills" on our own and then head off to the lighthouse again to wait for what would hopefully be a breathtaking sunset.
