Encapsulating the landscape of Mayon in the photo is a glorious sky full of stars.
The photo was taken at exactly 4:43 AM yesterday, January 21, according to Oco.
“I went Albay this weekend with my Father after namin mabalitaan na nasa Alert level 3 na yung Mayon Volcano.
We arrived at Albay by 9:30 pm and we stayed at Legazpi Boulevard hoping for a nice view of Mayon Volcano but was unfortunate to see the Volcano clearly. We tried to look for other spots before the sunrise until we finally ended up at Cagsawa Ruins by 4 am and tried to capture the Lava Flow of Mayon Volcano with the bright stars. Yung puyat and pagod ng biyahe is worth it, especially first time ko maka witness ng ganito.”
To residents nearby Mayon area, stay safe!
