for everyone
we were fortunate to visit all 3 inhabited islands of batanes - batan, sabtang and itbayat. each island has different offerings unique from each other yet they all have one common denominator - beautiful scenery! i hope my pictures will bring justice to this very beautiful place. may modernism and greed not reach its pure shores and batanes - along with the ivatans retain their remarkable heritage and innocence.
