INTRODUCTION
Laguna and Quezon Province are home to hundreds of small and majestic waterfalls. Though most of them are still unexplored, there are a few that are easily accessible for photographers who love capturing their picturesque and spectacular scenes. There are also other waterfalls that require at least 30 minutes to even more than one hour of trekking to have a glimpse of their beauty. In this photography, we will explore 4-6 waterfalls located in the towns of Nagcarlan, Luisiana, Kalayaan and Mauban. Be prepared to get wet and walk on muddy trails because when we chase waterfalls, it is the price that we really pay. Waterproof your camera gears and tighten up your sandals straps because we are heading up and down the streams. |
