Beautiful contrast in tones Reynaldo. This looks like a glorious lace to photograph. It is sad when the illegal element thwarts the good intentions of others.

It's difficult to believe only 8% remains of the lush and verdant tropical forests of the Phillipines...and that percentage was in 20002! When will we ever learn...if ever? A wonderful capture and a magnificent sense of scale...noticing the tiny huts below the grand escarpment of rock and hanging vegetation!

It's bittersweet to see such natural beauty, and then read about how little of it is left, because of Man's destructive greed. On a more positive note, Val's eyes interpreted the huts much better than I did, Rey, especially in the thumbnail photo. They looked like mushrooms to me! Have an enjoyable weekend!

This looks like a professional movie set or paradise, Rey. Why are they destroying all the beauty? My heart hurts hearing this! Excellent job and reporting.

Thank you all dear friends. It is indeed heart-breaking to learn that the devastation continues to this day. It's perhaps the reason the Filipinos are paying the price considering the floods and pollution, that more recently, have ravaged parts of the country. We can only hope and pray!

Gorgeous capture, but a sad story seen all over the world. Can't see why if they need to cut wood, the companies don't replant trees. Seem like that would help somewhat.

It is very sad that so little of the original rainforest remains in the Philippines, ... but it's not surprising considering man's blatant disregard for conservation and the preservation of Earth's natural beauty. This is a difficult lesson to learn, but today we are finally taking steps through reduction, recycling and saving energy through various means. Hopefully it is not "too little, too late". You captured the majestic serenity of this island with beauty to fill the senses! Excellent colour, clarity and detail ... and like Mary said ... the mushrooms really give this image perspective! Ha! Ha! Fantastic image, work and info, Reynaldo! :)

(GASP! I see the second one now, too, Sis! I needed my stronger glasses) :) Rey, all fun aside, I can't believe what humans do to this planet. I am in deep mourning over the tropical and temperate Rainforests being pillaged down for money and power. The loss of life and species, (animal and plant), medicines, and the ruining of peoples way of life for thousands of years...The climates...destroyed. All for what? We were given this beautiful planet to love and enjoy and take care of. To honor. The greed over the almighty dollar destroys all things good and innocent. :( I've been recycling for years now and it still doesn't seem like enough. It's what I can do and what we can all do but like Lorna said...maybe it's too little, too late? It's the big POWERFULS of the Earth that need to stop what they are doing. That would make a huge difference in saving what little is left.

Thank you so much Lorna and Laura. I'm a firm believer that great things happen from the smallest things that we do like recycling and energy conservation and also sharing with others the need to save the environment. Just like the Parable of the Mustard seed which is one of the parables of Jesus, "The Kingdom of Heaven is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field; which indeed is smaller than all seeds. But when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its branches."Matthew 13:31–32]. This suggests that the growth of the kingdom of God comes from tiny beginnings and evolves to worldwide size... Our efforts likewise are never too little or too late. Regards to you all and take care. You guys are so precious.

Wonderful analogy, Reynaldo! It also says in Luke 1:37 that "Nothing is impossible with God" ... so let's not give up trying! :)
