Description

As the sun sets while waiting for the clouds to clear Mayon Volcano, the sky started to burst different Hues that blends to the color purple of the Lilies. It’s really worth waiting though I was sucked 5x by a 4 inches Leech and worried to be lost in the dark….
The photo was taken near an active volcano in the province of Albay, on the island of Luzon in the Philippines.

Exif: F Number: 18, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 4/1 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 250, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 16.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark III
