So happy to witness this magic again after a long hiatus!
I've been shooting the stars as a hobby for almost 3 years now but I never get tired of doing such adventure. I always miss all the planning stuff and the preparation it takes to go outdoors. My excitement then skyrockets when its all put into action.
Just this weekend, I, together with my friends visited the town of Tabuelan and San Remegio, province of Cebu. It's a two day moderate hike/climb but the effort was worth the fun and experience.
On the 2nd day I woke up at 2:30AM Philippine time and I was greeted by this praiseworthy view outside my tent. At bortle 2, the milky way core was clearly visible by the naked eye and it left me in awe. Yes, it even took minutes before I started setting up my gears because I enjoyed staring at the sky. Sat down a few meters away from my tent and then started taking pictures.
Thoughts came into my mind that moment, like why do we focus on the worlds current issues when there are ways to enjoy other things it has to offer? We need to face the reality but let us not press ourselves too much. There are tons of things that could make us feel happy and fulfilled rather than burying ourselves out of sadness and negativity. Cheers!
