took a nap at the dormitory with my camera on the side. this cool weather can really kill time but was also a favorable setting for a waterfalls photo shoot. we did not waste much time as it was drizzling.
equipped with a camera, cover and a tripod we met our guide for the short trek to Imugan Falls. trail was foggy along the way and trail was good except for some drops. best part of trek was crossing low level river with fresh and clean cold waters.
every time you get a good look and a nice composition of the falls, you will forget the muddy paths and the slippery rocks. in the end, even nature proves that the path to a good life isn't that easy. but being determined to get there will always make sense.

"every time you get a good look and a nice composition of the falls, you will forget the muddy paths and the slippery rocks". I agree with you, sometimes when I see a good angle, I forget about getting wet or muddy, I just have to take that shot :)
I also just return from a jungle trekking trip. Nice waterfall
incredible images. i wont know if i'll use a tripod or not, but i hope my images would turn out like yours without the aid of a tripod. ang bigat bitbitin eh.
