#837 - Zambales Beach Shots for Saturday.
Lovely evening fellow dearest Hiveans. How's your weekend going so far? I was up late this morning at around ten and then I went to wash our week long laundry including the bed sheets and pillow cases since it's been a couple of weeks since we have replaced those items. It's a combination of gloomy and then sunny because sometimes the clouds cover the skies which make it gloomy for some period of time l, overall it's mostly cloudy. There's also a rain, heavy one to be exact, last night which cause some instant floodings on those areas which are just recovering from the recent flood caused by the typhoon recently. Anyways I, it's just a usual day for me nothing much to do maybe because it's kinda boring for some but it's the one we usually have during weekends, just rest and kill time at home.
And now for our daily shots we got some photos we had when we went to visit the surfing capital of the north which is in Liwliwa Zambales. We just went there for a one night stay and the wife booked a small triangle shaped hut which thankfully has a small electric fan inside and then a foam good for two which is basically that's it. Aesthetic is good outside but space wise it's not enough to move around, but what can we say we were saving for the costs so it was fine.
The sky was painted with hues of pink and orange, as the sun slowly rises above the distant mountains, casting a warm glow over the landscape. Pine trees line the shore, their branches stretching towards the sky trying to outrun each other. Among these trees, the sun makes its slow ascent, peeking through gaps in the foliage to cast dappled shadows across the beach below. The sunlight filters through the leaves, creating a mesmerizing pattern of light and dark that dances across the sand.
In the distance, a small boat is visible on the water's surface. This dredging vessel is busy collecting sands and sediment from the sea floor. Then there's a group of four young women, laughing and chatting as they stroll along the shore. They are dressed in swim attire clothings. There is also a banana boat loaded with beach goers wanting to experience some adrenaline rides in the rough sea.
Though the morning was still cold and so as the splash of the water, the wife went to dip in to the low tide. She wanted to have a photo first thing in the morning while the waves are not cruel compared to the afternoon. The low tide reveals a better sand formation also which is great for kids to play at.
As the day reaches its zenith, Liwliwa's beach begins to transform into a scene straight out of a postcard. The sun starts to dip towards the horizon, casting a warm, golden hour glow over the landscape which is the perfect conditions for an afternoon sunset. People are scattered across the shallow waters, laughing and playing as they enjoy the last remnants of daylight. Children splash each other in the shallows, their squeals of delight echoing across the beach.
As the sun dips towards the horizon, bathing Liwliwa's beach in its warm, golden light, me and the wife decide to capture the moment forever. I placed the phone on the sand with the golden hour in our background. With a smile, as gesture the wife to stand beside me holding hands, there were some people doing their thing in the background which were included in the frame.
Follow me on my nature travels.
